I don’t agree. They committed a crime, of course, but hackers are right about one thing—they indirectly do a great service by demonstrating the futility of most security systems and they help to make them better. If a couple kids can do this, imagine with a thousand dedicated hackers with unlimited resources (Russian, al-Qaeda, Chinese) can do. I say they should hire the hackers.

WW3 has already begun—it started several years ago when the Russians started massive attacks on US military websites and against sites of allies. al-Qaeda and China have also been doing enormous levels of attacks on security systems. I’m not suggesting these guys are on the same side—if anything, there’s a thousand sides in the war. But it is going on and we need all the help we can get.

What do you think of the CIA giving out the names of the Patriots that hacked al qaeda? They seem to protect the crooks and terrorists and give up America Patriots. There is a double standard. Perhaps I rushed to judgement but there is a major problem in the digital world. Perhaps hackers should own Microsatan.
