Why are you alining yourself with a computer hacker? I thought you were trying to stop these guys releasing exploits in your line of work?
Phrased differently: "The horse has already left the barn, and Gadi is warning you that there's a horse possibly munching on your front lawn already". Which would you rather have if you actually had a network to run - Gadi and HD Moore telling you that the bad guys have a point-and-shoot for the boxes you use to run your net, or them *not* telling you about the point-and-shoot? Hint: Anybody who thinks HD Moore is a major part of the problem is probably more a part of the problem than HD is.
