No. They seem to have been doing a few puff PR pieces recently. Can’t imagine anyone under 30 knows or cares about them. I guess their main claim to fame was being the first “hacker” group to do PR moderately well and transition into decent careers. Not really even an interesting footnote in history.
L0pht put hacking and infosec on the map for arguably hundreds of people. They were and still are incredibly talented.
