#2Hey Faizan !
When, last year, french Law Enforcement asked your company for the connection logs of terrorists that used your VPN service to connect to the admin panel of an ISIS propaganda website, you never answered.
When they wanted to subpoena the servers that where located in France, the only ones they had jurisdiction over, and for which your company had a legal obligation to keep the logs, they discovered that you stopped using servers in France after their first request for information.
How do you feel about ISIS using your infrastructure ?
P.S. Please don't try to tell me I'm lying. I obviously can't prove what I'm saying, but maybe you should ask your staff about all requests from law enforcement from the last two years, and filter those with the word "terrorism" on them. Then ask your staff why those received no answer.

I recommend the all-time classic "How To Become A Hacker" by Eric S. Raymond:

I just read How To Become A Hacker the other day and I highly recommend it. Not only is it a good read but the resources for continued reading mentioned in the text is very good content.

Be careful not to confuse this blog with F-Secure the Finnish Security company. Seems to me the two are totally unrelated.

I did get the impression he was quite accomplished -- given his acknowledgement from NASA -- so I guess... success?

ESR is a racist and a misogynist. And that document might as well be called "how to be ESR".
