Arthur and Matthew answered correctly, the person FBI really wanted to catch this time was the famous number one hacker Kevin. Mitnik. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The unwarranted disaster of "Hawkeye" this time was entirely because the FBI suspected that it was Mitnick, and the four anti-hacker teams responsible for chasing Mitnick were far away in New York, and the suspicious signals they tracked were finally located in Amherst Town.

Fearing that the cunning Mitnik would escape again, they urgently contacted FBI agents in Boston and the local police to get them to cooperate with the arrest.

So, last night, Hawkeye was arrested at home by armed men who broke into the door because he was locked by the FBI's phone tracking device.

What the members of the FBI anti-hacking team didn't expect was that this arrest operation caused a big uproar, simply because "Hawkeye" was somewhat similar to Mitnick in some network habits, such as knowing how to hack into the phone system skillfully, and liking to hack into computing flail with network nicknames such as Mantin...... Etcetera.

Originally, "Hawkeye" was going to be sent directly to New York, but the truth was revealed halfway through, so the FBI had to send it back.

Of course, before that, "Hawkeye" was warned to keep him silent about the matter, because they had found some evidence in Hawkeye's computer that could prosecute him.

Kevin. Mitnick?

Lin Hong saw that both Matthew and Arthur, and even "Hawkeye" admired it when he said this name, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

He was unfamiliar with the name, and searched in his mind, but there was no information about this person, and it was not introduced in the "hacker" book.

What kind of person is this person, who can make them so admired?

You know, hackers are a group of intelligent guys, rarely convincing people, if you want them to be convinced, there is only one way, that is, your technology is more awesome than theirs, or you have an indelible contribution to the computer or network, those masters in the book "Hackers" belong to this type.

Under Matthew's introduction, Lin Hongcai, a legendary hacker, has a general understanding.

Of all the hackers, although there is no technology to indicate that Mitnik is the most technologically advanced, one thing is certain, he is the most famous hacker in the world, and he is famous because he is listed as the most wanted person by the FBI and is wanted in the United States. It has also been reported by major newspapers and media in the United States.

Most of these reports are negative, and they see Mitnik as a beast that can enter your computer at any time with the slightest touch of a finger to peep on your privacy, even listen to phone calls, and hack into the computers of government departments and businesses to steal confidential information...... Etcetera.

One of the most dramatic stories is that when he was 15 years old, he successfully hacked into the computer systems of the North American Air Defense Command and obtained all the data on U.S. nuclear warheads directed at the Soviet Union and other allied countries. After the discovery of this intrusion, the U.S. military began to pay attention to the cyber security construction of ARPANET, but because Nick did not modify any data, he was not punished for this intrusion.

When Nick was 16 years old, he deciphered the "change password" of the Pacific Telephone Company's Southern California communication network, so he liked to play pranks, and changed the phone numbers and mailing addresses of many well-known people.

At this time, Nick was still a minor teenager, and his way of thinking about problems was also very naïve, not realizing the seriousness of the matter, although he learned that the other party was looking for him by hacking into the FBI's intelligence network, but he still didn't pay attention to it, and even played with it, and changed the information of Agent Zhao Si to the information of the criminals, mocking their stupidity and incompetence.

Eventually, Mitnick was arrested, and the police located his address with a newly invented "computer network information tracking device...... and arrested him. Since there had been no similar case before, Nick has repeatedly stated that he hacked into computers and networks out of pure "curiosity", and that he was still a minor, so the judge sentenced him lightly and sent him to a "juvenile correctional facility".

As a result, Mitnik became the world's first cyber juvenile delinquent.

He was soon allowed to parole. However, Nick did not stop his exploration of the online world, and he soon succeeded in hacking the computer network systems of companies such as Nokia, Motorola, Sunrise and Fujitsu. Later, it invaded the "National Data Assembly System ......", a confidential computer center in the United States. It is said that the FBI later calculated that the losses he caused to these companies were as high as 400 million US dollars. As for whether this is really the case, Matthew said that "only God knows".

In 1988, Nick was arrested again, this time because DEC (Digital Devices) accused him of stealing $1 million worth of software from the company's network and causing $4 million in damages. And this time, he was not allowed bail. The apprehensive police authorities believe that he poses a threat to society simply by having a keyboard. Mitnik was sentenced to one year in prison for this.

A year later, Mitnik was released from prison after completing his sentence, and he tried to find a stable job. However, the federal government saw him as a threat to society, so he was placed under close surveillance. Every employer who was interested in his computer skills ended up rejecting his application because of a warning from his guardianship. Nick had a hard time and had to do some manual work to support himself.

However, Nick's presence is always a threat to some people, a factor of instability in society, and some people don't want to see him appear in society, and they don't want to see him touch computers.

So, an extremely dark secret plan begins, Yang Si bribes a hacker with good skills and a little fame, and takes the initiative to contact Nick to induce him to hack into the network again, hoping to catch him on the same charge and send him to prison. The plan went well, and Nick quickly took the bait and began hacking into the phone system according to their lure plan, to everyone's surprise, they ended up underestimating Mitnick's technology.

Nick learned of their plan in advance, and when he made it public, the whole person disappeared completely, as if the world had evaporated.

This incident caused a great shock, and the major newspapers and media reported on it one after another, and the opinions of all sides were not unanimous.

Some people think that a potential threat to society like Nick should indeed be thrown into prison and not come out to harm society.

Some media believe that if this is true, then the FBI violated federal law in this matter and should bear the corresponding responsibility, but unfortunately Nick has disappeared and no evidence can be found.

More media ridiculed the United States for being so incompetent, spending so much manpower and material resources that even a small hacker could not help it, and they were skeptical that the FBI could guarantee the security of the United States.

After this incident, the FBI officially issued a wanted warrant to the whole United States, fully wanted Mitnick, and vowed not to give up until he was arrested.

Some people say that this is because Mitt has made the FBI lose face, so he must be arrested in anger.

Some people also speculate that it may be that the FBI "stealing chickens does not make it a counter-erosion," and Nick must have discovered some secret, which is why it caused such a big reaction from the FBI.

In the hacker world, there are mixed reviews of what Nick has done.

Traditional hackers believe that Mitnik is not a real hacker at all, because he is only immersed in his own small world, blindly invading and invading, although he is highly skilled, but does not contribute anything to the hacker underground society. Of course, he actually rarely does evil, and some of the information released by the government is not believed to be true by some people, and the crimes he was convicted of before were not considered violations of the law at all, and later after the introduction of the digital copyright law, there was such a statement.

The new hackers, on the other hand, idolize Mitnik as a fighter against authority, always on the front lines, fighting the fools who waste taxpayers' money and stop the development of computer technology.

Arthur and Matthew admired Mitnick very much, they thought that Mitnick's achievements were a height that they could not reach in their lifetime, and the thought of Nick being dealing with those FBI agents every day, fighting wits and courage, was too thrilling, exciting, and cool!

Yang Si issued a wanted warrant a year ago, and a year passed, and everyone almost forgot about it, but they didn't expect that suddenly, "Hawkeye" was arrested because he was mistaken for Mitnick.

At this time, they realized that the FBI had never given up the pursuit of Mitnik.

Where exactly is Mitnik hiding?

A year has passed, how did he escape the tracking of the FBI?

Is he still active online?

All this is a mystery, except for Mitnik himself, presumably only God knows.

Although "Hawkeye" didn't take the FBI's warning to him seriously, he finally asked Arthur not to spread the word about it, after all, if it did, it might still cause him some trouble.

After eating, "Hawkeye" began to set up the "Blue Eagle" BBS again, so that the FBI was only interested in the data inside, and all the hardware equipment was returned to him.

So, the Sam trio began to learn how to set up a BBS on the spot by "Hawkeye", in fact, Blue Eagle's BBS server is also an Apple-IIE to put it bluntly, but it has been modified by "Hawkeye" to increase the memory and hard disk.

"Hawkeye" has no reservations about them, and will go through the details of setting up the server with them.

After the face of the Internet, the "Blue Eagle" BBS resumed normal access.

Since they had to rush back to school in the afternoon, Arthur and the others said goodbye and went home after that, after all, "Hawkeye" tossed all night, and felt very tired, and there were still many things to deal with.

After each of the five went home to get their dresses, they gathered again at Arthur's house before Matthew drove to school.

By the time they arrived at school in a hurry, it was 3:20 p.m., and with ten minutes to go, Joanna's favorite rugby game was about to begin.
