People are failing to realise that without that guy doing what he had done, the bank wouln't have realized that there is a security problem with their system. We all think hacking is a dangerous thing. In some sense yes it is when it is done without you submitting that you have done something bad that will put someone into a loss, but in the reverse it is good. Would you thank your neighbor if he tell you that your wireless is open or would you care about how he knew that it was open? You will thank him/ or her and find a way to secure it.
