How can you know that they had the default un and pw without logging into them?

Did he say anywhere that he wasn't logging into them :)

He did say it, though indirectly :)

They only logged in as pi -- didn't bother to sudo as root :P

People who don't change the default password probably aren't those that would remove sudo privileges.

I logged in via script. If the login was successful the IP was added to a list. Was younger and stupider.
