ZDNet Talks to Kevin Mitnick

An anonymous reader writes "Notorious hacker turned security consultant Kevin Mitnick touches on a myriad of issues ranging from law enforcement to Microsoft in a short interview with ZDNet. My favorite part is when he's asked if in his mind, Microsoft is a leader and the rest are still catching up. Mitnick answers: 'I am waiting for a case where a software maker gets sued for releasing buggy code, but they will probably cover their ass with the long license agreements that nobody ever reads.'"

Re:no software is bug free

You are confusing software that has bugs in it with buggy code. Mitnick is referring to gross negligence . In fact, if you RTFA you will find this quote:

"Mitnick: Software is always going to have bugs because there are human beings behind it doing the development."
