Ask the Air Force Cyber Command General About War in Cyberspace

Posted by Roblimo on from the play-the-ultimate-MMORPG dept.

We ran an article about the new Air Force Cyber Command and its recruiting efforts on February 13, 2008. Now Major General William Lord, who is in charge of this effort, has agreed to answer Slashdot users' questions. If you're thinking about joining up -- or just curious -- this is a golden opportunity to learn how our military is changing its command structure and recruiting efforts to deal with "cyberspace as a warfighting domain." Usual Slashdot interview rules apply.

  1. Legal Hacking... by JeanBaptiste · · Score: 5, Funny

    Just post a list of the stuff you want hacked and the more patriotic hackers will enjoy doing it for free.

    Due to the nature of hacking and what many people do to acquire such skills, they may not want to 'join up' and all that.

    But if you post a list of IP's that are okay to bring down, and networks you want information stolen from, with the understanding that the US will not condemn any attacks, and I'm sure more than enough people would do it for free.

    Is there anything like this already in place? Cause I got nothing better to do this weekend. Or most any weekend.
