I used to work with Matt a few years ago, he was doing network admin work for an ISP and I was doing client installs. He wasn't really the brightest guy but he was nice to me. He also told me he did weekend jail because he bashed his brother and that he was part of some internet hacking group. I kind of ignored what he had to say but looks like he was telling the truth.<p>People like him don't hack for fun or to prove a point, he hacks because he is someone worried about his own privacy. If he can break into a system then who else is doing the same? Its the victims fault if they get hacked, there is absolutely no excuse for poor internet security these days, especially when we have so much information invested into them.
