I wouldn't have replied in this thread, till I read this. Did you read anything about it? Go search for it, and read all the facts.
His so called 'Mac hack' experiment was dumped.
http://blogs.zdnet.com/Apple/?p=152 Here is an article from the same site that reported the hack.
http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/21...report-prompts Here is a more detailed explanation.
Basically, the guy created user accounts for hackers, enabled shell access, and then asked them to deface a site. It would have been better if he would have given the admin password, too.
No OS is inherently secure, but generally operating systems based on UNIX are considered more secure than the others.
As for people who says hacking/cracking UNIX based OS'' isn't beneficial, have you ever heard of DVD Jon? Do you know how much money he made by cracking DRM?
