A 14 year old boy once found a botnet on an ircd. Instead of going to the ircops on the network, the boy infected himself and found the inner workings of the botnet and posted it on the internet. The internet was quite pleased with the boy's findings, but the boy did not assume that a certain group would obtain the server of the botnet and get access to it. The boy watched as the zombies spewed out all types of information to this certain group who had got admin access in the same way he had put forth in his discussion on the botnet. The boy learned that full disclosure is not always in the best of interests of everyone and still agrees with that in his 25 year old manhood. :(
