Actually, I spoke offline with several noisemakers (netdev, the guy who sent out the furry pr0n, and myself (jk)) a few months ago to confirm a suspicion of mine. In a majority of cases, the thoughts opined are not even supported by the author. (some of) the writers are of the opinion that people shouldnt be patching software, releasing 0 days, or helping others on this list with their understanding of information security. There are many reasons for this, and I am sure I could mention some of the more embarrassing ones, but that wouldnt get us anywhere, but I digress. The reason for some of the offensive noise and massive trolls on FD is the culprits want to drive legitimate security professionals away from this list. As pointed out by previous posts in this thread, FD disseminates information faster than most other mailing lists. Sometimes, information shows up here that is then forwarded to the other lists. The price you have to pay for this info? You have moderate for yourself. I know some people who have successfully cut out all the noise by junking all mail from gmail accounts. As this email helps to point out, that will reduce a lot of the noise ;-) -JP _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
