Whoa.
Sorry, but I need to defend heise here. I didn't see the original video, but if it's as geekmaster said, then they merely showed a video of how the jailbreak-kt.tk worked on the Kindle. That is called "customer service", because it may be interesting for people who don't own a Kindle (or who are too afraid to try it).
Also, nowhere did they claim that they discovered the vulnerability, or that they set up the Web jailbreak site. All sources are properly credited with links. I don't see any plagiarism in that - where do you?
Heise is, in fact, one of the few publishers in Germany who even go to court to defend information freedom. For instance, they fought (and won) a case where some folks tried to ban links from (online) press articles to external websites hosting hacking tools.
