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.

You need to read up a bit Scott.

Lamo don´t use the stuff he finds, he don´t store files where he´s been. And what seems most important here, he don´t contact the media himself, NBC in this case contacted him.

And what you realy miss is that he has never accepted any form of payment when he patches the loosers system up.
