[Fsf-friends] Ankit Fadia : The real picture

[Ajay Pal Singh Atwal]

Oh well, he is coming to my department in i guess a week or so and charging INR 250/- per seat (though I am not sure), I will post back my response, its already too late to say no, and people are too eager to shell out money, but I will make sure a spade is called a spade. 

But ofcourse after reading some parts (I didnt had the courage to read the whole) of his FIRST book from my institute library I alread have this notion (for around an year), he is or was an ankle biter and is trying to create more ankle biters but no real hackers/ crackers.

BTW here are the actual links of amazon reviews about fadia books
If mailman is kind enough not to trim the links

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/1931841721/ref=cm_cr_dp_2_1/104-1429298-6953558?%5Fencoding=UTF8&customer-reviews.sort%5Fby=-SubmissionDate&n=283155

Better than the books I guess

Very well written. You only reaffirmed what we have believed ever since
this Ankit Fadia hype was created. I guess it's time we started
educating people about these ``quacks''. All his achievements and claims
to fame are just plain lies and he has no way to prove them otherwise.
He has earned a shit-load of money selling his heavily plagiarised books
and now is studying some course in Stanford. It's actually not so easy
to disprove the myths associated with him ... the best we can do is to
ignore him. We have a lot more ``real hacking'' to do than even think
about script kiddies like Fadia.
Just ignore him ... the world will realise. Soon.
Regards,
BG
