I Was A Teenage Spook - The Adrian Lamo Story
thinbluemime
After collecting cobwebs in a studio vault for the better part of a
decade, an unreleased documentary on the 2003 hacking scene leaked onto
the Pirate Bay Thursday.

Narrated by actor Kevin Spacey, the 90-minute Hackers Wanted follows the
exploits of Adrian Lamo, who pleaded guilty in 2004 to cracking the
internal network of The New York Times. The film was produced by Spacey’s
Trigger Street production company, and includes interviews with Kevin Rose
and Steve Wozniak.

Lamo says the film had been bogged down by conflicts among the producers
and crew. “It’s ironic that a film about overcoming barriers, about new
technologies, about thinking differently, had to come to the public eye by
being hacked out of the hands of people who, after making a film about the
free flow of information, tried to lock away that information forever,”
says Lamo. “The truth tends to itself.”
Lamo adds that he had nothing to do with the leak.

The worsening journalistic disgrace at Wired
By Glenn Greenwald
Monday, Dec 27, 2010

For more than six months, Wired's Senior Editor Kevin Poulsen has
possessed -- but refuses to publish -- the key evidence in one of the
year's most significant political stories: the arrest of U.S. Army PFC
Bradley Manning for allegedly acting as WikiLeaks' source. In late May,
Adrian Lamo -- at the same time he was working with the FBI as a
government informant against Manning -- gave Poulsen what he purported to
be the full chat logs between Manning and Lamo in which the Army Private
allegedly confessed to having been the source for the various cables,
documents and video which WikiLeaks released throughout this year.
Whether by design or effect, Kevin Poulsen and Wired have played a
critical role in concealing the truth from the public about the Manning
arrest. In doing so, they have actively shielded Poulsen's long-time
associate, Adrian Lamo -- as well as government investigators -- from
having their claims about Manning's statements scrutinized, and have
enabled Lamo to drive much of the reporting of this story by spouting
whatever he wants about Manning's statements without any check.
