One of the first things you're taught at any capable IT university: Don't mess with hackers unless you're way better than them. And even then, prepare for a long, hard fight. :D

My guess is that they were Red Hat hackers, not Black (or White) Hat crackers.

There's not need for segmentation. Any group of hackers (not crackers, but tech savvy people who hack away on their keyboard with at least 300bpm) is dangerous to mess with. You're bound to have at least a handful of people in there who know quite well how to get back at you, and by attacking first there's not code of honour to keep you save anymore.

I know *I* would definitely not dare to upload any spyware on here. :P
