Respect she has the balls to speak infront of so many people, but all she did was forwarding a clock or am I misreading something here?

Yeah, not really a hack.. another misuse of the "hacker" descriptor applied to simple feats that anyone could do.

It's easy to say that once things come to light because then you can see how it was done - but she is a 10 year old hero because she discovered something really cool because she was super clever and uncovered something no one else had :) She wanted her games to grow and she got tired of waiting so she figured out a way to make them grow :) She has helped out the gaming industry a ton by bringing this to light - now they can build better faster games :)

Ehhh, it has been discovered before and used for cracking other software/games. Only difference is that this story is focused on mobile devices. And she was so interested in helping the software companies that she waited 6 months to reveal it. Sure, I'll credit the thinking outside of the box, but that's it.

lame. changing clock time around forever. she prolly googled it

the words girl , 10-year old and hacker don't mix

I was doing that over 10 years ago on my DC to complete the time dependant races on Metropolis Street Racer.
