san diego firm raided by fbi after announcing it had breached, army, navy and nasa computer systems

mixed feelings on this… we can’t allow people to willy-nilly break into confidential systems w/o fear of retribution… however, the fact that they were doing it to call attention to HUGE holes can’t be overlooked. gov’t and industry MUST find a way to EMBRACE and LEVERAGE the hacker community, as they CLEARLY are inept at securing their systems on their own. and ultimately, that’s potentially a FAR more dangerous thing for ALL of us.
