I saw Mitnick on Silicon Spin
Just a quickie but Kevin Mitnick appeared on TechTV's Silicon Spin With John C. Dvorak. I don't usually watch this show but my TiVo automatically grabbed the show because it was on the Ethics of Hacking. Gosh, my TiVo knows me huh? Anyway, the show was basically a debate between Kevin Mitnick and Marcus Ranum (CTO and founder of NFR Security). I would like to first say, that guy Marcus is an asshole and should think before he opens his fat mouth. He even came out with statements like, "The difference between us and hackers is that we are like engineers and we read hacker BBS's and try to think of their next move." Hey, even I can read rootshell and bugtraq. That doesn't make me an engineer when I can fix the companys website from stuff I read. The guy just gets upset when he knows hackers out there have an ability to hack into companies and don't care about being nice about it. Fuck nice.
