A quote from the article: 
And they often live in an area where traditional, big-money computing
jobs are difficult to find.

Do those of you in CSI:TCP/IP anticipate that online crime syndicates
will form in the USA, as "big-money computing jobs" get offshored to
India, Viet Nam, China, etc?  The article mentioned Russia, Eastern
Europe, Brazil and Asia as physical locations.  I would presume by
"Asia" they meant "People's Republic of China", but given that weird
Titan Rain thing, one never knows.


Who knows.

That would be the epitome of irony, though, wouldn't it? :-)
