Anyone can "have their say" -- in fact, you just did, but I'm not exactly sure what you said.
Actually, that's "anyone can have their say except the amoral, moneygrabbing, cabalistic monopoly of anti-malware researchers, who have no right of reply to any crap that might be thrown at them."
I assume that you're stating that my job would somehow be easier by someone else creating new viruses? Is that what you're trying to say?
Well, it's a point of view. Though not one I hold, being dedicated to blocking the individual's God-given right to create as much malware as he damn well pleases... I don't see that this has much to do with reverse engineering, to be honest. Malware creation by modifying existing programs goes back to the dark ages, and is almost too trivial to qualify as RE. -- David Harley AVIEN Administrator: http://www.avien.org http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
