Feds Want Hacker's Genetic Code...
...but they don't say why. Adrian Lamo hacked into the New York Times data base a few years back for which he was convicted of three felonies and given prison time and a lengthy period of "supervised" parole. Okay, fair enough. He shoulda left the NYT alone. But now the feds want his DNA too? And unless he gives it up Lamo's lookin' at five more years in prison.
If it was me, I'd head down to Costa Rica or look into obtaining some new identity papers. I couldn't live that way myself. Just ask around amongst the immigrant community. In Detroit you can buy a SSN, green card, birth certificate, or pretty much any other piece of ID for a few hundred bucks.
