Kevin Mitnick dumped by AT&T

Post by Libra Monkee »

Over the past month, both HostedHere.net, his longtime webhost, and AT&T, his cellular provider since he was released from prison more than nine years ago, have told him they no longer want him as a customer. The reason: his status as a celebrity hacker makes his accounts too hard to defend against the legions of script kiddies who regularly attack them.
Would you like to know more?

Honestly, I don't blame them. He has to be a PITA to have as a customer, no matter how much he pays.

This would be like Chuck E Cheese firing Michael Jackson, you know bad things are going to keep happening.

Ya, gotta agree with the aforementioned... he's got to be one hell of a target!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
