[Full-disclosure] What the f*** is going on?
http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2011/02/anonymous-speaks-the-inside-story-of-the-hbgary-hack.ars
Been reading the ...ah...umpteenth(?) article over the HBGary story. Well, it's been fun and all, but seriously, this is getting tiring. I don't want to bash Anonymous - they've got enough BS already, and we all know about it, it ain't worth even mentioning.
Instead, I'll talk about the clueless idiots out there which run supposedly informative articles. So yeah, now we're calling kids vandalizing websites, causing worthless damage, experts, geniuses even?
I mean, if these are the security industry's geniuses, why, what would the writers of Stuxnet be? Disclosing how their epic story simply involved SQLi, well, what about the guys discovering 0days in native code?
Then there's the law aspect. Many seem to award people intruding and damaging private property, exposing confidential data somewhat of a good deed. Yes, similar to punks expressing their artistic capabilities on your front door and making off with anything they can pull off from your car, if not with it as well.
When one views what kind of stuff they do, as well as their literacy level, one can only conclude they're not far from the lowly term of "script kiddies". But let's leave the self-acclaimed victims aside - what about the media. Surely naming kids as security gurus easily makes up a media sensation.
Wonder how much time these authors have until the FBI knocks by. Don't know how many counts of infringements they did, and unlike the, uh, security gurus, they pretty much left their ID card for every cop in town to look at.
Da sempre vostro, Pietro DeMedici
