I will bring this up at the next security community meeting. I will also suggest the inception of a black ops cyber-hit squad to cyber-takedown any cyber-terrorists or cyber-insurgents and cyber-traitors. Together, we can win this cyber-war if only we all use our cyber-sense and cyber-skills in cyber-harmony. Then we can usher in a new dawn of cyber-topia where cyber-people can cyber-roam in cyber-peace, free from cyber-fear. We are so going to cyber-bitch-slap them...once I finish these Cheetos. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of andrew.wallace Sent: Monday, July 26, 2010 3:05 AM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Re: Pwnie Awards 2010 should be condemned by the security community http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.security/browse_thread/threa d/0ef14b1992f93a7d/b9aad77f8ba7c371?#b9aad77f8ba7c371 ----- Original Message ---- From: andrew.wallace <andrew.wallace () rocketmail com> To: security-basics () securityfocus com Sent: Sun, 25 July, 2010 8:38:58 Subject: Pwnie Awards 2010 should be condemned by the security community I nominated Tavis Ormandy for "Most Epic FAIL" but it didn't get shortlisted, probably because Pwnie awards is biased because all of the judges carry out the same questionable activity as he does. It is disgusting that people like Laurent GaffiƩ and Tavis Ormandy are being made heros for putting everyone on the internet and beyond at risk by making irresponsible disclosures behind Microsoft's back. People like GaffiƩ and Ormandy shouldn't be awarded for anything, instead their behaviour should be condemned by the security community. Tavis Ormandy's recent disclosure was the first real case of cyber terrorism n3td3v Security has said in a statement on its blog. The "winners" of Pwnie awards are due to be announced at BlackHat USA security conference on July 28, 2010.
