How is Kreb's at fault? Talk about blaming the victim!
- andrewmcwatters 11y agoLets reduce this first to understand it. First, why would you antagonize black-market groups on the Internet? Why would you actively make yourself a possible target? Does that seem wise? To me, that's a far less complicated question than anything security related at a technical level. You can literally ask a child this question and they'll tell you it's not smart. This is advanced stupid.
- Zikes 11y agoBrian Krebs is a security researcher partially responsible for uncovering some of the biggest credit card leaks in recent history. It's his job to "antagonize" the credit card black markets. He's not just some internet troll, he's doing real good that you very well may have personally benefited from as a result.
