Botnet Hacker Gets Four Years | Threat Level from Wired.com

The authorities said he worked by day as an information security consultant with 3G Communications. After his guilty plea, Schiefer was hired at Mahalo, the so-called "human powered search engine."

Calacanis point out that Mahalo users' data was not breached by Schiefer.


How would one exactly know that?
