Uh... was his full name already well known by now, or did FoxNews just seriously screw this guy?

Too bad, I really like their name and love when news anchors pronounce it.

Fix what problems? What are you talking about?

Security as a whole is just abysmal. It's horrible and it needs an overhaul, and until it gets one this "catch" of theirs means nothing.

That's weak. There's hardly a worse class of human than a rat :^S

While I agree...it sounds like he had a pretty tough choice regarding his kids...I would imagine they made the options pretty clear...

Option 1 - Help us and you keep your kids
Option 2 - Don't help, you go to jail for life and we put your kids in the worst foster care imaginable.

When his kids hit their teen years, he'll be calling up to renege on the deal.:p

Otherwise, I agree.

Guess he did not want to go to prison and not be with his 2 kids. I am sure that is the first thing out of the FBI's mouth.... give us all your info or have a nice trip to FPMITAP.

As much economic damage this group is responsible for... they are still small potatoes. You cause a company to lose some money and one of the stockholders is a senator... well you are fucked... or will be when you get to prison.

Meanwhile... the Chinese are controlling the Jet Propulsion Lab through all their installed exploits.... and are also likely enjoying all the research coming out of Sandia Labs among other places.

They may be small potatoes but it definitely sends a message.
