Hi there
Well I think that we feel that these tricks by Mr Fadia are of no use or copied because Mr Fadia has not upgraded himself.He is still going by those old tricks.he is just giving seminars on those old tricks.Since he started early in this area so he has the recognition.In today's scenario there is no dearth of resources like the Home PC or the Internet as it was in earlier days.
It is very sad to learn that Mr Fadia still does not discriminate clearly between hacking and cracking.Really I do not think that using third party tools to just try out things is of use for real hackers and its quite true that hacking is not possible without a flavour of UNIX/Linux.
In support of Mr Fadia I can say that since people have this perception on hackers and crackers are same etc,so Mr Fadia must be using the term hacker for cracker.And to show some instant results he must using some third party tools.What do you expect a 2-3 hour seminar to teach you . Linux/Unix.??? He is just selling what sells.Even he is aware of these differences (which he should be)he won't clear them.He is just earning good bucks .
I can understand that most of us who are well versed with Unix/Linux will surely expect some real hacking at the seminar .But It will still take some time in India for such seminars

The media people are also ignorant of hacking and unfortunately most of them refer _crackers_ as _hackers_. This is really a bad thing.
Not only media, even the IT Act too....
