I noticed a couple times throughout the article you referred to memehacker as a 'he'. I just felt it extremely necessary to bring forth the fact that memehacker is a 'she'. Don't assume that just because someone is in the Infosec industry, or is knowledgable about things pertaining to computers that they are male.

Apashi: welcome to English. When there is a gender (eg., we're not talking about a spoon), but the gender is unknown, English calls for use of the male gender by default. Saying he/she/it, while certainly PC, wouldn't really accomplish much.

That being said, one can't but enjoy the dialog between Neo and Trinity:

N: Are you the one that hacked the IRS dBase?
T: That was a long time ago...
N: I... I thought you were a guy.
T: Most guys do.

Ain't nothing to be scared of- if your a 'hacker' you know how not to reveal your identity. If your a hacker- then you have nothing to fear cause learning ain't a crime. Ok- the FBI thinks it is but... I'm screwed, aren't I?

If you're going to criticize a writer, at least criticize for something worth while. That was petty.

Almost everyone who knows anything at all about computing machines/networks/protocols/applications dev./etc. IS male, idiot.

...and for a very simple reason: There are almost no girls smart enough to do it, idiot.

So please, for the love of anything at all...

SHUT. UP.

...idiot.

Ralsky can burn in hell. Have fun rotting in prison, you fucktard.

Haha. I think that was made quite clear by a certain trinity of movies...

oh please

This article suggests that the hacker community is also involved with spamming activities. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you spend some time at popular hacking sites such as slashdot or digg you will find that spam is deeply resented by the the technical elete. Pehaps you meant to use the work "cracker" instead of "hacker".

'He' is the indefinite third person pronoun in English. I just felt it extremely necessary to bring forth the fact that feminists who don't know their grammar shouldn't subvert language, too, for their political purposes...

You know, "he" is a valid generic term when the sex of an individual is unknown...get your panties out of a twist.

Perhaps it was an attempt at protecting his/her identity.

Whaaa. Take your political correctness elsewhere.

Typos galore

Let us all hope that Alan sings like a canary and brings down a whole bunch of his scum-sucking spammer buddies.

If you've spent years hanging at slashdot, you'll also have noticed individuals who claim to be "whores", that is, they'll do anything using technology, for money.

I have no doubt that there are some minority who frequent slashdot (at least in years past) who might accept money from Ralsky and others.

The dot-bomb put a lot of good people out of work. Just like the fall of the Soviet Union might have tempted some scientists to whore their knowhow to the highest bidder.

Interesting how Alan Ralsky keeps popping up. Talked to someone recently who knows a woman Ralsky had a long time affair with in the mid 80s to early 90s who had to do jail time thanks to him in the UP of Michigan. This was easily verifiable from newspaper articles and court records. Hell of guy, huh? Seems he has quite the penchant for skirts. Irmengard must be incredibly greedy not to have tossed his ass out long ago. More than likely he uses her to attempt to hide assets.

Hahaha
how you going send the spams now.

let me ges.. you going to send you new friends report the news...hahahhahaha...

I hope the gards lose the key wher you are now MTFker
