Book Description

In early 2000, the websites of CNN, Yahoo, E*Trade, Dell, Amazon, and eBay ground to a halt for several hours, causing panic everywhere from the White House to suburbia and around the world. After 2 months and hundreds of hours of wiretapping, the FBI and RCMP staged a late-night raid to apprehend the most wanted man in cyberspace--a 15-year-old kid,Mafiaboy. 8 years later, Mafiaboy, a.k.a.Michael Calce, has ignored requests from every major media outlet in North America and has not told a word of his story--until now. Using his experience as a cautionary tale, Calce takes the reader through the history of hacking and how it has helped make the internet the new frontier for crime in the 21st century.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A quick look at hacker culture, Aoû 11 2009
Par NorthVan Dave (North Vancouver, British Columbia Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
For those of you with memories that go far back enough, back in February 2000, several large scale Denial of Service (DoS) attacks went out to sites such as Amazon, CNN, and E*Trade.The attacks were large enough that they crippled the aforementioned sites and resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars of lost productivity and revenue. After a joint investigation by the FBI and RCMP, the culprit was identified by his on-line username: Mafiaboy.

This book details how the then 15 year old went about creating his DoS attacks and why he did it. The book also provides a brief glimpse in to hacker culture and the oneupmanship that takes place in this community. Yes, mafiaboy (real name Michael Calce) does his share of bragging and at times it does seem to be a bit much. But then again if you crashed some of the larger sites on the internet, wouldn't you be bragging as well?

In short I liked this book. It was well written and I found it to be very interesting to read. If you're in to hacker culture and are interested in those internet attacks low-those years ago, then give this book a read.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Not Worth The Read, Déc 7 2008
Par T. Quiring "New Media Journalist" (Vancouver Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Mafiaboy - How I Cracked The Internet & Why It's Still Broke reads more like a "what I did last summer" essay combined with a school research project than a true authoritative look at the problems inherent with security and the internet. I found Mr. Calce's tale to be built more on ego and teenage swagger than on remorse. Granted, he did learn some good coding skills in his early career, but I find it hard to believe that an otherwise seemingly well-behaved kid had no foresight into the wrongness of his activities. At times I did wonder who he was trying to convince - himself, his family, or readers - that his foray into piracy, hacking and bot herding was nothing more than an innocent quest for knowledge gone wrong.

While I understand the lure of power and being able to do something no one else (or very few) can do, Mr. Calce broke the law, and he deserved all he got. Although he cautions others against following in his footsteps as the end result is not worth the brief intoxication of power, my respect falls on the side of the RCMP and FBI agents who put an end to Mafiaboy's thoughtless attacks. I do not feel that his inclusion of very basic internet security information in any way redeems the millions of dollars in damage and lost time he caused.

I freely admit to harbouring ill-feelings towards script-kiddies and bot herders - feelings developed through firsthand experiences as our own network fell victim to botnet DDoS attacks. That said, I tried to not let that experience influence my opinion of this book, and I think that for the most part I succeeded. I was able to read this book more from an educated point of view in regards to internet and network security rather than as a neophyte. However, try as I might, I found very few redeeming qualities in Mafiaboy. He alone did not crack the internet as the title seems to imply - there were many before him and many more after him who saw the internet as their personal crime-filled playing field. I don't understand why Mr. Calce felt that a full-blown book was required in order to "clear the air" other than to draw further attention to what he did and perhaps earn himself a little notoriety and fame within a new generation of young internet criminals. Despite his words to the contrary, I view Michael Calce's book as nothing more than a way to make money from his crimes. Perhaps this is why there is yet another version of his book being published in 2009 - but the new title is "Mafiaboy - A Portrait of the Hacker As A Young Man" - perhaps others took exception to the boastful claim in his title - or perhaps there was another reason, but either way, it's a new title I won't be picking up - reading this story once was more than enough for me.
