Now here is a strange joke by two 'kids'. Mischa Spiegelmock and Andrew Wbeelsoi (pseudoname) claimed at their Toorcon session that Firefox's javascript engine was hopelessly screwed up and full of vulnerabilities. Their joke was plausible enough to briefly throw Mozilla into panic mode and reporters into puking a splatter of news. It turns out they were just joking.

The really funny part is that Spiegelmock works for Six Apart's on LiveJournal and Wbeelsoi is supposedly part of a group that claimed responsibility for launching a javascript attack against LiveJournal in January. I wonder if that's how the two jokers met?

And the tender loving part of the story is that Six Apart is not going to fire Spiegelmock. Awwwww. That's so sweet. Will Mischa be allowed to hang with his hacker buddy after this?
