and posted the stolen data to The Pirate Bay website

FWIW, you can't put the actual on TPB. You can only create a torrent file of the actual data and put that torrent file on TPB and the actual data resides on the seeders/leechers. I was surprisinged that it came from securityweek. These type of (inaccurate) news are the news that no-idea-goverment-officials base their decisions.

Comment Just my two cents... (Score 5, Insightful) 29

In the third world country where I live in, vendor-driven and free events usually have their marketing guys do all the talking. This means biased information. On the other hand, paid events are the ones that have real knowledgeable guys in it. Unfotunately we rarely have such events since the price to have a very knowledgeable speaker in it is very high and only few people will certainly attend. The price is usually higher than an average sysadmins or developers salary (not employed in the top 100 companies in the country or converted 650USD a month). Affordable events do happen but in my experience there is always this one guy in the crowd that is more knowledgeable than the speaker (asks more indepth questions, disagreeing with the facts of the speaker with much more citations, etc.). The best option over here is just to find free webinars of past notable events. Of course you don't get to ask questions but the knowledge that is gained is priceless.
