... I guess given this general level of technical skill, you can imagine the success they're having catching actual hackers.
A bit of wisdom I got the hard way... I was trying to put a corrupt politician out of office and he had clearly violated the State Ethics Commission rules. I went to them with evidence that was as good as you could get without police powers. The Deputy Commissioner said this: "The only people we can catch are those who are both venal and stupid. One is not enough, you have to be both." As you might guess, my quarry was only venal. And that was the end of the tale. I suspect that that episode was of a more general nature, and that it applies here. --dan _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com https://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
