  • bedouin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Welcome to Dig, where 65% of the comments are bitching about why the story sucks.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm glad to see Cap'n Crunch in there. I actually know that dude, though I haven't talked with him since back when he was getting his security and web firm off the ground (it was about 1998). Crazy *****, but interesting to hear his stories. If you ever get a chance, see if you can dig up his interview(s) on the Art Bell show. Art Bell is his usual stupid computer illiterate self, but Draper is entertaining.

    Draper used to (maybe still does) have a whole archive of self-written stories about his youthful escapades, including the time he served in jail on his site. Worth checking out.

  • UnlivedPhalanx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hackers aren't anything special - and sure as hell don't deserve a hall of fame.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Interesting...

    Most of them have beautifull pictures ahahha.
  • spiderland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hmmm, I disagree with some of the choices on that list. Still interesting, however.
  • antdude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Heh, why did it start on page 15?
  • mrbean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Not much on Linus.
  • mkultra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah. Outdated. Linus doesn't work for Transmeta anymore.
  • TRUEPATRIOT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0incredibly old and he posted the last name because the first one link was already submitted

  • billizm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Should read, "Publicly Known Hacker's Hall of Fame".
  • hadees, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0So wouldn't the best hackers be unknown? I mean since they were never caught and people never knew they were hacked
  • Tweekster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0UGGG,

  • firehydra2k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0heh..
  • Demagogue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ahahahahah^^

    Anyway, I thought it was fairly interesting. I wish everyone would stop acting like they know everything about everything and everyone.
  • spiderland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"incredibly old and he posted the last name because the first one link was already submitted
    DUPE!"

    So that's why it starts at page 15. Very lame, Hutch34.

  • UziMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Did anyone actually read this? It's written by some crack-addicted braindead monkey. Why do people digg this crap? It's also old, a dup, incomplete and completely clueless.
  • nikolas, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0It may not be secure at a glance, but also keep in mind most businesses use the little black pen to check to see if the currency is counterfit.
  • Wasted, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0OUTDATED, lame, typically the sort of link that would appear 'news' to the idiots digging this site. TFA doesn't even mention DVD John.
