"did plan"

The most important thing was that you gave it thought in advance! That is good. You had your reason for wearing the shirt it might not be the same decisions others would have made but the decision is yours to make based on what you were trying to achieve.

By "scary" did you mean the media attention?

I mean the vulnerabilities. While my exploit has issues (which, as far as I can tell, are issues with timing when reading data from the lock; I lose the first bit of every byte) it's only a matter of time before someone fixes that and has these rolling off the assembly line. All you need is a microcontroller, a resistor, and a connector; that scares me.

I'm curious how the admin system of the hotel logs these types of entries. What do they show it as in the log file?

Were or are you able to find out?
