Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2004-08-26

Well Put, I work for a computer company and find that it is rare that a PC ever comes in that doesnt have some form of Pirated Movies and MP3's, Illegal Pornography, Or Hacked and Cracked O/S's on them ~ so trust me none of you are innocent - and just because you weren't the one who may have downloaded items or "patched" your operating system, doesn't mean you are innocent - your still using and storing illegal content ~ and as for the stereotypical 'All Hackers Are Bad and Are Going To F*** Us' Thats BULL I know many VERY respectible people who do it on a regular basis, not for personal gain but to help companies and business save thousands and millions a year by finding and patching holes in there security - So all of you who think you need to slander 'Hackers' to make your ego bigger and feel better about yourselfs, just think next time you go DOWNLOAD your latest ILLEGAL cds and mp3's or movies - because your all just as guilty as any of the people our talking about here ~ Get over yourselfs
