Hacker “Weev” is Released from Prison, Starts Hedge Fund Called TRO LLC, Appears on CNBC

CNBC just got very surreal. I have been following the release from prison of well known hacker and troll “Weev” for several weeks now. What has really captured my attention is his effort to get the world’s smartest hackers to find vulnerabilities in companies, short the shit out of them, and then release the vulnerability to the public. He plans on using a hedge fund naturally called TRO LLC to achieve this goal.

Bottom line, no matter what you think of this guy, he is a force to be reckoned with and someone to keep a close eye on. Apparently, the hacker community is sharpening its pitchforks as we speak. Wall Street has no idea what might be coming their way.

  1. For some ridiculous reason and all of a sudden, my Hotmail account was stopped…!! This intromission from MSN and the people that control the internet and communications is in violation of my citizen right to have and manage my communications privacy. Hotmail indicated there was a “threat” to my e-mail, but this is not true, and the stopping of my account is irregular, abrupt and without my authorization…!!
    Shame on MSN for doing this to the users of Hotmail..!!

  2. I’m thinking that his business model is one that quasi-federal agents won’t particularly like, so I recommend that he marry a Brazilian and take up residence there before making a staggering amount of money.

    This is a country where if you express ideas that federal agents don’t like you, you will be beaten, imprisoned, or killed. I accept my responsibility for offending seditious thugs, liars and tyrants. I say this is the duty of all decent citizens left.
    God bless.
