Who says Kevin Mitnick is the best?. His real talent is social engineering, not coding/pen-testing/exploit digging. Remember, he hasn't been able to touch a keyboard in many years..
"They should hire the 'Other Kevin'"You call Mitnick a script kiddie then say that Kevin Rose would be better than him. Oh god, this must be flaimbait so I won't bother.
