During the last couple of weeks, two people have hacked Kevin Mitnick's security consulting firm's site. One defaced it with a work of vandalism that read "welcome back to freedom," while another asked Mitnick for a job. Mitnick, the high priest of hack who just came back after years of online exile, didn't nitpick about the intrusions. He said that no customer data was compromised, so he's not calling the law.
