[liberationtech] The People vs. Professional Hackers

[Dave Deriso]

Hello,

I wanted to know what you think about the whole HBGary thing? Calling their
work “proactive tactics,” this company will do everything from stalk your
children to coding viruses and planting them on your computer. Are we
equipped to deal with this legally? Should they be allowed to get business
licenses?

Take a look at the HBGary website, before they take it down.
