What a joke
Let's recap:

1. Maynor demos what he claims is a hack to Apple's airport drivers. It soon turns
out that it's a third-party card that works in any machine, and that Maynor hates
Apple and Mac users in general because they are smug about how secure their
computers are.
2. He gets called on it and spins like a top.
3. Ou joins forces with Maynor because Ou also hates Apple, probably for the
same reasons.
4. Ou declares that he has the dirt that will vindicate Maynor and prove Apple is
the lying scumbag dirtball corporation he knows it really is, and he'll tell all in a
few days.
5. Weeks go by. Apple patches their airport drivers after crediting Maynor for
getting them to dig in the code, but claim their patch does not affect Maynor's
hack, which is non-existent.
6. Maynor goes to ground.
7. Ou loudly proclaims Apple is a lying dirtbag scum corporation trying to
discredit Maynor because Maynor had the guts to Speak Truth to Power, and that
Ou has the dirt that will vindicate Maynor and prove to the world that Apple is a
lying dirtbag, scumball company.
8. 8 months go by.
9. Maynor crawls out into the light of day and says: Hey, Apple did patch my flaw
and didn't give me credit for it. See, I'll show you. Here's my hack before the
patch, and see, it doesn't work after the patch. What? Is it the same hack I did the
first time? Well, uh, yeah. Because I say so. Just trust me.
