On: Kevin Mitnick has died

[elif]

I can't say enough about how influential Kevin has been in every decade, continually staying at the head of the snake of hacking. I am so lucky not just for how he inspired me in my youth, but how he relit the fire of security paranoia in the last decade when I was fortunate to work for an organization he hacked (by contract).

All software engineers are now more vulnerable with Kevin gone. Stay paranoid friends, now more than ever.
