JP (john) is a well known figure in the computer security world. Google his name and you will find TONS of articles (related to antionline and not). In fact if you gogle many of our members real names it will take you to tons of articles, studies, interviews done by them. Antionline was (and still is, somwhat) populated by many people who have contributed greatly in the security field. This placed is packed with information and many great minds watch over this forum still. If you ask the right questions you will find there is an almost endless supply of information here.


EDIT**

I should add that there are also a bunch of skript kiddies running around here also who think they know what they are talking about but really dont. so like anything else always check and recheck "facts".

If you go to www.archive.org and in their "way back" machine type www.antionline.com it will give you snapshots of what the website used to look like.

The website used to be a part of the hacker "underground" however now days it is just a discussion place for IT enthusiasts/professionals.

Also JP no longer owns the antionline

[pegasys]

what is JP up to these days anyone know ???

he started another community...but for some reason the name escapes me at the moment. I visited it a few times and signed up but it seemed slow moving so I lost interest.


EDIT***

I remember. it was www.yoursincyberspace.com but it looks like he took it down, so I have no lcue what he has been up to latley.

well what i heard is that the creator of this site was a failed hacker that could never match up to anyone he knew, so he opened his own website and forums so he could have the last words and finally be in control.

Maybe you should do a little research before you post, don't base your opinions on what you 'heard '. There have been many things said about JP and JP has said many things about others. Do some reading before you draw a conclusion.
