The helpful hacker demonstrates his techniques on camera for the NBC Nightly News, but lawyers kill the story when he cracks the broadcast network's own systems.

Success is measured in media visibility these days, and attempting to write off someone as a script kiddie (especially when no script kiddie would ever be able to resist the urge to splatter "0wN3d 2k2 4eVr" all over every page he touched) is pure ignorance.

This nice networked world we live in is no longer the province of alpha geeks and their special secret toys. The network is a resource, and it's vulnerable.
