| | Hacker Adrian Lamo steals information from New York Times. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | Lamo also exposed security holes in the intranet of WordldCom, which thereby threatened the security of Citicorp, Bank of America, JP Morgan, and more. |
 | | Lamo, who has no qualms admitting to what he did in his most recent escapade, states that he was able to gain access to the telephone numbers, social security numbers and other personal information of hundreds of people through the New York Times database. |
 | | Whether what Lamo did, and has done, was purely for the fun of it or for some noble cause, it is still frightening to know that the information was so easily accessible. |
