I know some here are like me and working in IT/Infosec.
Kevin was a legend. Yes, he was a hacker, but he never stole a dime nor sold the informatinon he got. He also went straight after he was arrested and released from prison, founding his own cybersec company to help educate users and companies on how best to defend themselves against hackers and bad agents.
We in infosec field owe a great deal to Kevin Mitnick. RIP man.
