Sarettah, I don't think our little hacker, Adrian Lamo, can be called a white-hat hacker after this recent news. It seems he used the services of LexisNexis to the tune of $300,000, which if proven, could give him at least 3 years in prison.

When the government was trying to come up with a figure for damages in the Mitnick case, the defense fought the millions of dollars figure that the federal prosecutors gave the Judge. Mitnick did plead guilty to possessing lots of other things which he stole.

BAD BAD CRACKERS! Yes, Kimmy, you can add Adrian Lamo to the "who cares" -- "arcane reference" list!
