It sounds like a Hollywood movie. "Hacker tattoos"? Single person took on an entire country? I dunno, something about this is off, like it's too juicy of a story for Wired to scrutinize it properly and there's really more (or less) to the story.

Yeah, especially since the NSA or FBI or CIA has never accepted the dude's methods. And he's the only one giving his own testimoy about all of this. It's weird.
