"we" (the community) shouldn't be playing into the hacker spirit of things. by increasing your threat level publicly plays into the hacker mind-set that they can *take over* and be causing problems on a wider scale. we should be dampening the hacker spirit by not letting them visually see anyone panicking or there being an increased level of concern. don't give the overall aura that hackers can have an affect on us, and that even though we might be working hard behind the scenes in an increased level of busi-ness, this shouldn't be communicated outward to the hacker community, as it gives satisfaction to the hacker community as a whole that they are beating us down.
So what you are saying is, If we don't worry about it then it will go away? They just do this for fun and the thrill? There is no large money market in this for them? Cheers, Scott
