Hacker Hunters Unite!

Good article from Bizweek about cybercrime.

What a crock: The FBI will spend just $150 million of a $5 billion fiscal 2005 budget on cybercrime -- not including personnel -- in spite of its being given the third-highest priority. (Terrorism and counterintelligence come first.)

That's 3% of their non-personnel budget. Meanwhile, the government puts a gun to our head to make sure we recycle those plastic bottles so the mafia (that the FBI uses, I'm sure, much more than 3% of their budget to chase) can boost those garbage collection margins.
