WOW! Stain me impressed! Your five day certificate sure trumps Adorno’s forty plus years and my thirty-six years working careers (mine in owning a business in computing and business consulting) in computers and IT, with some of mine as a CEO of a fairly large corporation . . . Not to mention my degree in Economics! I may be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that Adorno has some pretty good sheepskin on his wall as well.
Your five day certificate in "ethical hacking" surely qualifies you to determine the market segments multinational corporations occupy far better than my four years studying micro and macro economics with a minor in Business Administration as well as a post-graduate stint teaching both, no doubt due to the, what, two minutes(?), your seminar may have spent mentioning business market segment Economics while you were supposed to be emersed in learning some kind of ethical hacking, an oxymoron, if I ever heard one.
That really had to have been some in-depth, five-day course you attended with SANS. Tell us, did they cover nuclear physics and brain surgery as well? How about Logic and such things as Logical Fallacies like the fallacy of The Appeal to Authoritiy Fallacy?
Frankly, the only one spouting strongly held, ignorant opinions as facts here, obviously based on an exaggerated opinion of the value of a limited value or perhaps worthless five-day seminar (of which I would venture Adorno and I have attended, presided at, and/or lectured for, or even presented papers at, as paid presenters for, at many such seminars in our careers) , is YOU, MountainWalker, a certified member of that 95% Internet yokel cadre. Send me $95.99 and I’ll send a finely faux engraved, full-color certificate, suitable for framing, that you can hang on your wall next to your "Ethical Hacking Certificate" attesting to your Internet Yokel Membership.
Both of them combined might get you just as much weight as we educated, experienced and informed professionals who DO KNOW WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, have already been giving your load of twaddle, zip.
PS: Consider yourself hoist on your own petard, Moutain Walker.
Like I said, you’re a self-admitted non-expert on mobile computing, which makes you a clown of sorts when spouting off drivel on the subject matter. But you’re not even an amusing clown - just an angry one.
But, that’s not going to stop you in mocking a certification on the subject matter from the gold standard in security training institutes that you’d fail quite spectacularly if you ever attempted. I’m sure that if they changed the exam so that wackos like you could pass it, you would then hold it in high regard. However, the people who actually pursue the certification are more interested in making a living in the field that getting into internet arguments with angry clowns on the internet.
