Just read this over at Dark Reading. Subject says it all.

Why do I work 60+ hour weeks trying to be one of the good guys?

Because like a large majority of people in the InfoSec / Hacker community your are an ethical, stand up sorta guy.

As will all these things, the bad guys get heard about, the good guys rarely get mentioned.

It is always shocking when people do get caught and sentenced though, its no wonder there are so many crimes, sometimes seems the risk of getting caught, or something serious happen is slim.

I love it when people get life, but cant be let out before 5 years. When did 5 years mean life. Oh well.

Personally I think very slim. If that was me and I'd been given a punishment like that I'd be back out doing more illegal stuff than ever. After all, what's the harm?

Agree 100%, just had some 'run-ins' with the criminal element of society thhis week which I think left me a bit jaded. Hopefully the usually jolly, law-abiding me will resurface shortly
