He may be a lamer, but I can say for sure, unless we expose such things, youngsters especially students will take him/ such people as an example to follow and forget about the real heros of computing (RMS, Denis Richie, Linus, ESR, and many more).

I know so many students who think and assume Business Gate$ and even ankit fadia as their idol, and think of them as some great software engineers, IMHO they were/ are good business man, have been successfull in making money, if ankit ever was a hacker wannabe, ending up as a script kiddie but now a successfull business man.

All that is necessary for a business man to succeed is for a hacker to do nothing.

Prabhat,

Well, dear. I don't think this is the right place to discuss these topics here. This is FSF list and lets confine our discussions to IT, Linux and OSS here. But if you have something to say, please visit here ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/India-Force/ ) . People will love to hear your views.

Raju is right. We all know AF is a fraud. This is a fact and it has been established many times. Now what we can/should do to expose him is totally off-topic here. Regards, BG
