I can't imagine the zine is taken that seriously. The content has been elementary for most of it's existence. This sounds more like the paranoid types drawn to hacker scenes and less like the kinda folks that write exploits.

Try Phrack if this is your thing. Their articles are still amazing quality and contains much more information on the topics 2600 readers are interested in.

I'm not gonna lie, I read this almost entirely for the letters to the editor section. So hilarious.
