the problem is that they get fanatics who think that they know everything about computer systems, and networking. I say someone give him a virus, grab a new one, put it on his laptop (if he has one) and then tell him to write a defense for it. My money says that he can't.

For homeland security, this will be a joke, they want the high profile hackers (actually script kitties) to do lead their national defense initiative. The problem is that these script kitties know not the power. The one rule that everyone (I) goes by is this, even if you are good, there is going to be someone better.

Hail Microsoft, Hail Apple, Kill Linux. We cannot have an open source operating system can we? Microsoft has already started their campaign against open source as a threat to homeland security.

And so it begins....
