It's not elitism, I'm being fairly realistic here. Hackers are curious self-driven people that go poke and find things for themselves, it's pretty much a hard requirement for the trade. Asking for things on a silver plate in a forum whose name has "hacker" on it is frankly pretty lazy. If you think dropping some "helpful" links here will help the dude actually "defend his country", I'm sorry to have to be the one to say that that's all delusional feel-good theater. The other comment above talking about zergling rushes also caught on to the misguided motivation for this thread. If this was about being of service, my recommendation stands: join the army, that makes a material difference, especially when there are literal tanks physically invading your territory. Dreaming up fantasies - and not following through when you eventually realize that cybersecurity is hard - is stupid. People are dying out there.
