message: I just read this "paper" (which this article calls pioneering) and found it rather unremarkable.  Is it true that these techniques were not known in '95?  I tend to doubt it.  Maybe unknown to the general public, and even unknown to most programmers, but I'm sure a particular niche of programmer was well aware of it and could have written a much better treatment of the subject.  What mudge himself writes seems to show a general lack of understanding; for instance he calls x86 instructions "commands", and to find the machine code he instructs the reader to write C code with asm() statements, use GCC and look at the binary, when using a simple assembler would do. 174.31.231.72 (talk) 17:58, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

message: The latest change 5 days ago added that Julian Assange was also a member of L0pht along with Peiter Zaiko.
No references are provided to support this claim and I didn't find any either in the Internet.
Either that claim should be removed and the article reverted to the previous version or a reference should be provided. ChusoPR (talk) 09:20, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: Peiter Zatko →  – Mudge seems to be his WP:COMMONNAME. Use a disambiguation because there are multiple people named like that. PhotographyEdits (talk) 17:04, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

text: He is already listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mudge  I'd support a redirection page, but the term "Hacker" is quite loaded, and does not seem to represent his current contribution to Computer Security.  No from me on changing the title based seemingly only on current news.  Wigbold (talk) 10:52, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: @Wigbold I think he calls himself a hacker, and that term is already listed in the first sentence. We should not care about how 'loaded' a term is, but only accuracy. PhotographyEdits (talk) 10:42, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the article is best titled by his real name, do not support the proposed move. He uses that real name, his wife took his last name of Zatko. Mentioning the name Mudge in the lead and again in the article suffices. I do not think it is in the article proper now, as Biography jumps from his birth date to graduation from Berklee music college in one sentence. Adding a sentence or two as to when he took on his nickname would be good, informative, especially if there is a source. One of the current Time Magazine articles??? He is listed at the disambiguation page for Mudge under See also section, which in turn links to this article. Prairieplant (talk) 20:45, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: @Prairieplant "He uses that real name", does he, though? On his Twitter, he calls himself Mudge with the username @dotMuge. PhotographyEdits (talk) 18:19, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

text: Twitter is not the only place a name is used. His wife is not Mrs Mudge, hinting that he used his real name when he got married. Nicknames and user names may gain popularity, but they are not legal names, baptismal names, name on a tax filing, name on a marriage license, possibly not the name on his paychecks or bank accounts. Twitter is one online social medium. Not the whole world. The article uses the name Mudge too often in my view, especially as there is no explanation in the article about when & why he began using that nickname. - - Prairieplant (talk) 21:12, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

message: "Sarah Zatko said “Dishonesty is definitely something that frustrates him,” says his wife Sarah, ..."
is awkward (repetition of "said"/"says").  I'd recommend to change the paragraph to
"On 11 August 2007 he married Sarah Lieberman, a co-worker at BBN and a former mathematician at the National Security Agency. Remarking about her husband’s time at Twitter in an article in Time Magazine, Sarah Zatko said: “Dishonesty is definitely something that frustrates him”[35]"— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jschauma (talk • contribs)
