		hippo_crete on May 12, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: IAmA a malware coder and botnet operator, AMA He says he has no respect for the security industry and AV companies. He makes compellling arguments against them. Then when asked about his future, he says he plans to work for an AV company! WTF?! He can see what's wrong, but he can't do what's right. And that, my friends, is the problem.

If you want to do this for the rest of your life you have no choice than working for a security firm (AV included) or being a criminal.

The problem is why he didn't get that job at Kaspersky. He is obviously skilled so what happened?
