He was on the coast to coast AM program, sitting in for Art Bell.

If I recall he did come to speak to us here at SUU. Unless it was a different person. But I am pretty sure it was the same person. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lino Morales To: blindcasting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 12:25 AM Subject: Re: The idiot has been caught Hey all, Do you know if Kevin Mitnik is still band from the net? I know he was the world famous hacker some years back. I was talking to my wife Julie and I made the comment that I wish Freedom Science Friction would get rid of the Eloquence speech engine for good. If I had DecTalk I'd be in Heaven. Take care.

I don't know how the rules are over there. But I can guarantee you that in the states, he would be out in about a year, or less, perhaps more. If he has a good aturnie, and other things going on. I agree with Jeff Bishop here though. He should be banned from the internet for a few years. Perhaps several. ----- Original Message ----- From: Shelly To: blindcasting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 30, 2006 8:59 PM Subject: Re: The idiot has been caught It's this kind of quivering and quaking that gives crackers like this their jollies. Be glad the guy is "behind bars" and hope for a trial and conviction for crimes committed. Be on your guard, and pressure companies who produce software you use to do the same. That's all you can do, but you should do no less. It does no good to lie awake at night worrying about the bogey man. In fact, it does a lot of harm because criminals and mischief makers thrive on your fear.

How many criminals do we know who get caught and after a few years or even a few years they are released and do the same thing again? I think it's great this person got caught. I am just saying look out. He might come at us again when we least expect it. Or he might have another friend who knows how to scoop email address and freeze eloquent, and so on. -- Shelly Brisbin, Writer, Editor, Geek for Hire Shelly's Podcast: http://shellyspodcast.com Hollywood On The Radio: http://hollywood.libsyn.com Tracy-Hepburn Podcast: http://tracyhepburnpodcast.com Member, Podcast Outlaws Network: http://www.podcastoutlaws.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
