I got an exclusive first interview with Adrian Lamo, the hacker to whom Bradley Manning confessed. U.S. Army Private Manning stole government documents that revealed secret information about U.S. war strategy and reached out to Lamo, a rockstar in the hacker world, to ask Lamo what he should do with the information. Lamo went to the FBI. "I went to the right authorities, because it seemed incomprehensible that someone could leak that massive amount of data and not have it endanger human life," Lamo said. "If I had acted for my own comfort and convenience and sat on my hands with that information, and I had endangered national security ... I would have been the worst kind of coward."
