Crazy stuff. I knew the guy who hacked into that university in California a few years ago. I didn't know it until it was brought up one time... Talk about a small world.

Oddly enough, people like this kid get hired by the government and big companies to help defend against things like what he created.

"Good" hackers would but this kid hardly did anything remarkable. He just added a few lines of code to an existing virus.

As soon as it happened and everyone was amazed that he did it, 2 or 3 of my nerd friends all showed me that they could do the same thing.

This kid is just plain fucked...

he problem was that he left a "signature" or something in the code and they traced it back to him. what a dummy
