Russian Agency Charges FBI Agent With Hacking
eNonymous Coward writes "An FBI agent who helped lure two Russian 'hackers' to the USA in 2000 so that they could be arrested is now being charged with hacking himself by the Russian FSB. You might remember that Gorshkov and Ivanov exploited an NT vulnerability to steal information from corporate networks, which was then used to extort money from the companies; they're also accused of being behind the CDUniverse and Western Union credit card database thefts. Last year a federal judge ruled that the FBI's action was legal, but the FSB disagrees."
Not long ago, in Moscow a 7 year old girl was physically abducted from his mother's house and a few weeks later was found in US territory with her father. Interesting to note that US judges seem concerned not about the abduction but who should be the tutor of the child...
Considering how the Cuban boy was treated can you really expect the US to do much about abducted children?
