Don't be so Naive

I hate to rain on everyones parade but this contest is for the "good hackers". This "panel" of hackers doesn't constitute the real world wit real threats. The bad hackers aren't going to show up to win a mere $20,000 when they know they can make $200,000 or more. At best, this is just an "in your face" show.
