Exactly. AFAIK, no evidence has yet been produced which substantiates their claim. And you know as well as I do that the "Hacker X" claim has been used by spammers (and others) for many years in order to provide plausible deniability. "I find your lack of disclosure...disturbing." So perhaps they're telling the truth. Perhaps they're not. (I find it useful to always presume that when the word "spokesperson" enter the conversation, that lying is in progress. After all, *anyone* could tell the truth; it takes a well-trained, seasoned professional to lie convincingly and at length.) ---rsk _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
