The main point behind the rants of these lame kids is that once their little hacks and sploit tools are well known and defended against theres far less havoc they can raise on other peoples systems and networks. Tis the whole crux of their foundation. Pisses em off to have their "trade secrets" announced to the world. The best thing others can do when these children seek a soapbox is to ignore them, so those that have filtered their crap do not have to read 10-20 responces from others allowing them a soapbox.
