I skimmed through and noticed this,
"George Hotz (GeoHot) isn’t just a random kid, he’s our future. He should be celebrated and considered a role model for anyone interested in science and technology."
Yes he is the future. But so am I. And so our my friends, siblings, and any other random kid you can find on the street. George Hotz should in no way be celebrated nor considered a role model of any sort. He has talents, that is for sure, but he should keep some of his practices to himself.
'You should read the next few paragraphs. They explain why he should be celebrated. Or maybe the couple before it.
If you weren't skimming it'd make much more sense.

Enlighten me because nothing that Hotz has done I would celebrate or consider a role model.

Once again, that's why you should read the whole article. They mention a shitload of things he's done outside of jailbreaking, including being named one of the "Top 10 overachiveing people under 21" by PC World Magazine and winning a bunch of programming contests. Invented a brain wave reader lots of stuff that people would/and have celebrated, and reasons to be a role model. He's basically a super genius.
Though you know, reading the whole article will actually you know, let you know what the author is talking about and understand his point of view too, instead of not reading the whole thing because you want to cling to your beliefs rather then actually have a rationale conversation.
In general, the hackers that are really good at stuff, are nothing more then the next generation of people who will drive the industry forward... because people who build, also like to take things apart to see how things go together.

He got his celebrated stuff for robotics which was ingenious. Now he is just a attention whore with no regard for anyone but himself.
