How hard is it to really compromise a system? As an ethical hacking instructor, I get asked frequently. Simple answer - try hacking a lab system. There is real value in understanding what it really takes to defeat common security. This can’t be duplicated from listening to industry experts or simply reading books. You must try it for yourself.
Pretty cool.

A restaurant is being sued in federal court by a group representing songwriters for playing tunes written by Van Morrison, Dwight Yoakam and others without a license.
B-M-I says damages could reach 750 dollars per song.
I understand that this is currently the law, but it is complete crap. If a restaraunt is just playing music for background noise and not directly making a profit from it, they shouldn’t have to pay royalties. They don’t pay royalties to manufacturer of the paintings in their restaraunt, just because it happens to be in a restauraunt.

I just wanted to make sure that everyone noticed the hypocracy. Go to: http://www.mpaa.org/ReportPiracy.asp and click ‘view source’ and see for yourself. For anyone else, I wouldn’t find it all that big of a deal. But an anti-piracy witch hunt website? Credit is all he asks for in his source code. The MPAA doesn’t give that credit.
