News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

It certainly doesn't inspire confidence in his ability to single-handedly securely run a financial company targeted by hackers, but I think he has handled himself quite well otherwise.

His forthrightness with the incidents, covering of customer losses, etc. has made me respect him.

+1. Please give him respect. It's not often that a 17 year old hacker builds a site in 4 and a half days that begins processing over $1M USD in volume. Of course it's going to be a target for hackers. Do you insult the local jewelry store owner because his diamonds got stolen?

Perhaps, if that jewelry store owner had his diamonds sitting on a picnic table outside the store, unsupervised.
