Why the Tor attack matters

Some of us are more outraged by the fact that they kowtowed to authority on the BlackHat presentation, and had a disclosure policy that favored the Feds over both the Tor project and the entire security community.

The CMU researchers are basically Sabu. Subhuman traitors to the hacker ethos.

I doubt they ever particularly cared about the mantle of 'hacker' and whatever ethos is supposed to go with it. That makes it hard for them to betray it.
