Stankdawg




StankDawg was born in Virginia in 1971 . He has his AAS (Associates in Applied Sciences) degree from the University Of Kentucky as well as a BS (Bachelors in Science) from Florida Atlantic University . He began working in the computer industry fresh out of high school in the late 1980s and has worked as a senior level programmer/analyst for fortune 500 companies as well as large Universities. The young Dawg moved quite a bit in his life growing up all over the South on a mix of farms and suburbs in such states as Virginia , West Virginia , Pennsylvania , Alabama , Kentucky , and currently resides in Florida . He went to 4 different high schools in 3 different states in 4 years.

StankDawg is a staff writer for '''', and '' Blacklisted! 411 '' magazine. He has also been a contributing writer to several independent zines such as '' Outbreak '', '' Frequency '', and '' Radical Future '' as well as creator and editor of '' BR Magazine ''. He has been a frequent co-host of Default Radio , and has appeared on '' GAMERadio '', '' Infonomicon '', '' The MindWar '', and '' Phreak Phactor ''.

In addition to making appearances on radio shows, StankDawg has also given presentations at technology conferences such as DEF CON , H.O.P.E. , and Interzone . StankDawg was also the first person to release an internet television show about hacking, '' HackTV '', which has grown into a series of several different shows and spawned a whole genre of online videos in the same vein. He has appeared in a Wardriving segment on an episode of '' Most Extreme '' which aired on Animal Planet and has done many interviews for local news channels in the state of Florida .

StankDawg's Binary Revolution site, with its forums, file libraries and other resources, have contributed to the creation of over a dozen related "Hacker Media" shows and podcasts, some of which are defunct and others still running to the present day.

In the summer of 2005, StankDawg took a 1-year sabbatical from day-to-day administration of all things DDP related. This included the popular binrev.com suite of sites including the radio show and the ever-growing forums. His reasons were personal issues, as well as a general lack of enthusiasm and support from the hacking community about his projects. StankDawg will be returning in the summer of 2006 .

When taking his sabbatical, StankDawg turned over the reins of Binary Revolution Radio which he created and hosted for 2 years to Strom Carlson and Black Ratchet for season 3.
