    No doubt, may as well have slapped a big bullseye on their chests.

    In a way the masses of media attention and havoc master blaster and sobig caused has led to more people paying more attention and security.

    It always takes something like this to cause people to sit up and take note and actually start doing something.

    Media attention always does the type of thing it's meant not to.. Like, if they say "don't do this or don't do drugs" what do you get? More people doing it and ****.. It's sad. The media always influences people in the wrong direction of things, e.g hackers, real hacking, security, drugs, etc etc..

    This sounds like a good idea but its probably going to cause more damage, white hats ( if there is such a thing) are doing the right thing by taking out sk's and crackers but i think that it might cause a reaction that will cause yet more damage cause lets face it, some people are just plain duma$$e$ just my thoughts
    what do u all think will happen?
