Hello,

If people start making deals, this thing could fall like dominoes. Why on Earth does anyone know who anyone else is?

Never forget what this man is. You keep forgiving him his trespasses and speak to him as though he is a reasonable human being. You keep forgetting the things he's advocated. If you respond to this man again, you are being foolish.

Imagine myself investigating the hackers. If I catch a few, will I out the rat? No Way!
a) He's still of value if unknown,
b) I want other hackers to think the bust mostly due to dumb luck.

So why'd these guys name the mole?
Meant to cause dissension & mistrust among hackers? Or it's what rats deserve?

Doublecheck the wording, they insinuated it, without exactly SAYING it, big difference.
And while that one might have sang like a canary AFTER being busted, that weren't who rolled em in the first place, that was Adrian Lamos, who's time will come.

As for the bitch who sang...

That's what you GET, when you cooperate with the Feds - since viewed in the harsh light of objectivity they are *worse* criminals than Anonymous could ever dream of being.

FBI: US losing hacker war
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/fbi-us-losing-hacker-war/11143

Summary: A Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) executive says
“we’re not winning” the hacker war. He warns that FBI’s current
model to fight hackers infiltrating governments and companies is
“unsustainable.”

Oonjerah wonders idly ... Can it be the FBI has no competent and
honest hackers of its own? hmmm.

Well duh - hackers, by their very nature are anti-authoritarian.

The Feds have tried to counter this by training their own, but that kind of bootlicking, straight laced thought process doesn't have the necessary creativity to compete.

All they got is a few punks and shills like Adrian, who's skills are primarily social engineering and betrayal, even hackers have sociopaths although not many, and most of THEM are in it 4thaLuLz.

Adrian is a special case though, he gets off on fucking people over and destroying things, and isn't it so very ironic that he found his calling stooging for the Government, eh ?
His day WILL come.

All Hackers are not created from the same mold.

Takedown, 2000, "This film is based on the story of the capture
of computer hacker 'Kevin Mitnick'." Tsutomu Shimomura helped to
capture Kevin M., and he co-wrote the book about it. Tsutomu was
a hacker for the good guys. Pretty good movie.

My sis, along about 1960, went from keypunching to computer
programming. Computers fascinated her, and those were the "bad
old days" when they were still fairly simple. With her obsession
and the relative simplicity of it, she was able to master several
languages.

She liked to call herself a hacker, because she could read binary and
knew enough about architecture to get "underneath." I would say
she got under programming, into the workings of the CPU and BIOS.
But that's probably a misunderstanding by me.

Lemme imagine she's reborn in 1980 and well into hacking by 1995.
She's nearly amoral, could go either way with the talent. Lust for
money and appreciation for nice things like Maseratis, she'd wanna
be paid by a corporation for her skills.

I suggest that what the FBI can't do, the Corporations will.

OTOH, the FBI crying "uncle" may be a sensible tactic.

While I don't trust the ethics of the hackers as a whole,
I do trust their arrogance and love of publicity ... it's
a good time to broaden their activities.
