    I wholeheartedly concur with the flame sent in response to the "former" 
    hacker's introduction.  This sort of individual bragging about his 
    criminal background and his obvious expectations of attaining wealth as 
    a legitimate entrepeneur are not unlike other organized criminals 
    buying legitimate businesses with their ill-gotten gains.  Rewarding 
    these types with consulting business and publishing royalties only 
    encourages other seemingly intelligent people to do the same - this is 
    not on the job training, and costs businesses billions of dollars in 
    losses and required, preventive measures!

    As an information systems auditor, however, it does provide me with 
    additional job security!
