Grade A Pigeon The congressional aide who tried to hire hackers to improve
his college grades six years after graduating has been canned. Todd
Shriber, former press secretary to Rep. Denny Rehberg (R-Montana),
solicited hackers from Attrition.org to break into computers at Texas
Christian University and "make an adjustment to [his] college
GPA." Instead, the Attritionistas goaded him on and then published his
e-mails. For a brief period they convinced the 28-year-old aide they
planned to hack his transcripts via carrier pigeon. A savvy reporter from
sister publication Network World identified Shriber as a congressional aide
in December. A day later, he was unemployed. Apparently, Shriber was afraid
people would think him stupid. Imagine that.
