Black IC here we come?

I'd rather say "Aaron Barr gets his dumb ass hacked again to prove it's a bad idea".

Meh. The core concept is correct. Bouncing around publicly about it may be less than intelligent, but you need to approach hackers like you do terrorists. Identify, track, develop, infiltrate, exploit, destroy. Especially in groups.

You mean Analyze, Trace, Probe, Stealth, Edit, Attack?

Not from Barr. The man is a threat to himself and his companies, not anyone else.

Until we have DNI, there's no real point to Black IC. If someone wants to attack X, they don't attack FROM home. They attack Y, use Y to attack X, and then clean Y. Or more modernly, use entire alphabets in much the same way. It also works to attack Y, set up Y, clean up Y, and then go to the movies and let Y's crontab do their dirty work.

The only people Barr is ever going to get are those people who know less than Barr. All three of them.

If by "Offensive" you mean manners, then, yes, he is offensive.

Or perhaps Black Hammer rather then Attack

If only everyone was that smart...

From the looks of it, the various police departments around the world have been doing just that.
