Max Vision: FBI pawn?
Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2001-05-08

FBI agents called him 'the Equalizer': a security expert and confessed hacker who infiltrated the electronic underground to help the Bureau. When he drew the line at bugging a friend, they threw the book at him.

How to avoid an ambush
I will say this much in defense of MAX... you claim that he screwed some other crackers over. Well, you do know how to avoid an ambush don't you? The answer is pure and simple - never place yourself in a compromising position. These folks you clain MAX has screwed over most certainly would not be in any kind of trouble had they not done something worthy of such troubles. In short, blaming MAX for "covering his ass" is a poor excuse for whatever these other crackers were doing, particularly if it wasn't legal. Nuff said?
