Impressed...not so much technically, but I am impressed that he is doing something he enjoys so much that he is willing to do it for free. If he wants to find companies that are not keeping my confidential information private...I say right on. I say what he finds should be in the news every time.

What he is finding is more important than some kiddie finding a new way to crash IIS, he is exposing companies that neglect to protect their clients or their personal information and moreover he helping them resolve their issues for free.
