Large Waterloo student rental companies get hacked over shady business practices

Gathering a lot of data in a legally dubious way, and publishing a statistical report on it. Reminds me of the Carna botnet.

I wonder if OP plans to submit the report for course credit too? It would probably get a pretty good mark.

Waterloo student housing has always been a mess. It doesn't help that the entire city has always been in denial of the fact that it is a university town.

When I lived there between 2000-2005, the city has pretty lousy regulations regarding student housing.
