Is this real?
- JuanTono 3y agoI'm asking the same, Wikipedia page is not updated and based on the note he died on Sunday...
- dredmorbius 3y agoAs I write this, there's a pending edit, accepted for review, of Mitnick's death. That seems to have been reverted pending a reliable source: Edit: <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kevin_Mitnick&oldid=1166195415 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kevin_Mitnick&old...> Revert: <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kevin_Mitnick&oldid=1166195630 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kevin_Mitnick&old...> Wikipedians typically resolve such issues pretty quickly.
- Spliterator 3y agoI'm wondering the same thing. Wikipedia page isn't updated, I don't see any updates on https://www.mitnicksecurity.com/ https://www.mitnicksecurity.com/ or https://www.knowbe4.com/ https://www.knowbe4.com/, and I can't find any other news mentions about this. I also can't find mention of him having pancreatic cancer, but that's not necessarily a confirmation of anything. He certainly could have kept it private.
- m4jor 3y agoYeah seems like it was something he kept hush hush. Sad to hear the news :\
