We shouldn't be too surprised given the context, but that is an impressively unbalanced wikipedia page.
>He is currently facing federal criminal charges for allegedly publicizing internal files of the private spying agency Stratfor through the whistle-blowing website Wikileaks.
"spying agency" is a bit loaded
>In the spring of 2004, during his freshman year, he pointed out a security flaw on the computer science department’s website to department administrators, offering to fix it.[5] For pointing out the flaw, Hammond was called before the department chair and ultimately banned from returning for his sophomore year.
The linked article says that he 'pointed out' the flaw by hacking into the university computer system
> His boss at Rome & Company wrote in 2010 that Hammond is "friendly, courteous and polite and while we suspect, he has a low tolerance for corporate posturing, he has never demonstrated any contempt for business in the workplace”.
>"Jeremy is one of the best, most helpful guys I have ever talked to", wrote HackThisSite user Brandon Perry of Texas. "He is a good guy that only taught ethical hacking"
