Homeless Hacker vs NYT
NYT story.
First thing I just felt funny reading a story dealing with the NYT by the NYT. Otherwise I did not see any glaring problems with the bias of the story.
I think our system is incapable to cope with the new technologies and the cultures surrounding them. Too bad for Lamo, from what I understand. His MO was to exploit security problems of a company and then report it back to them so they could fix it.
(edit) On second thought, omission of his MO is the bias of the story.

Wired NEWS and TechTV both have articles about this, if your looking for an impartial view. The TechTV one even has streaming video of him surrendering to the feds.
