Torvalds attacks IT industry 'security circus'

The maker of Linux was right,

"In an e-mail to the Linux kernel developer mailing list, Torvalds
said a section of the security industry was dedicated to finding bugs
in software only to publicize their findings and gain notoriety."

We've got to stop doing an HD Moore to make a name for ourselves and
release vulnerabilities for the right reason, not to become a cyber
security rock star!!!

The security industry is a circus, its a joke what its turned into,
its not about security anymore its a media circus, with over hype and
over drive.

Let's cut away with the elitism and become normal people again who
aren't pumped up on steroids everyday to become famous.

The media are to blame, the Robert Lemos's and the others, they write
shit all the time just to make their companies ad click money, they
don't really care what's written as long as its security related they
don't care.

As little research as possible and the most amount of over steer to
make the security industry sound more important and exciting than it
is.

Security, its a dull field to be in, once you know it all you really
do know it all. Its a boring sport being a security professional.
