I believe part of the reason why companies tend to stay away from Individuals such as Phiber Optik is because of the amount of misleading information the media has give hackers the past few years. This isn?t about Phiber Optik having a pass record, this is all about money, They want to make their clients happy, it will probably look bad reading a article like ?Ex-Convicted hacker joins @stake?. People make mistakes and tend to grow up, he made them, pay for them, and learn his lesson. This is just plain wrong.
