Lamo Bumped from NBC After Hacking Them

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.

Mr "anonymous" that called Lamo a script kiddie. You have no idea of the definition of a Script Kiddie. Get on IRC,They're Everywhere! Script kiddies in the proper sense of the word, do use other programs to do their hacking, but it also relates to dickheads on t3s who kill people for their amusement with an icmp or udp flooder that they downloaded from packetstorm security (no criticism towards packet storm security), or loading flood clones onto an IRC network to piss people off or kill them. They're the people who should be arrested for causing annoyance and traffic jams on the net. However, I'd say people on dual oc48s or oc192s that can drop Cisco routers or whole networks, with their own original commands using Unix or Linux, some real OS's, are legends, and should be paid to knock scum like script kiddies off the net. I'm sure that Lamo could knock you off the net any time he wanted to, and so could most "script kiddies' anyway. Flap your gums at the real twits on the net, and leave the pros to go. I bet I could knock you off from my 56K modem :P It's dumbasses like you who are all talk and no action, I'd like to see you hack into NBC networks. Or let a REAL pro hack you live, and see how long it takes before you get 0wned, and what you do about it. Get on IRC and get the real picture of what the net really is. Fool
