This is a discussion thread for the "Confirmed: GeoHot Hired by Facebook" story posted on the front page.
Mad at Apple (for some unknown reason) Goes to FaceBook, who are secretly plotting to destroy Apple, Jobs, the iDevice ecosystem, and the Mac Helps Facebook destroy Apple, Jobs, the iDevice ecosystem, and the Mac Profit (???) Is that what's happening?
this article is quite poorly written lol... spelling mistake "quite" should be "quiet".. and hotz' help is not needed, the iphone dev team doesn't need him. as for him getting hired by facebook, pretty surprised actually. I figured once a pirate always a pirate.
Gosh, it's Facebook! You could probably work in your pajamas there after looking at Mark Zuckerberg's past lol. Honestly though, I'm not too surprised. Although Facebook is an enormous company, I think they may probably be a little more lax about who they hire...in terms of past behavior that is. Geohotz can deliver and I can see why he would be hired there.
It's really very common for hackers to turn in to "security analysts." That's probably what has happened here; I mean, he's definitely gotten the know-how and expertise in the field.
Chronic also said it was true: https://twitter.com/#!/chronic/status/85458279370727424 lol OT: I think it would be pretty cool to work at Facebook.
