Mike Lynn Defense Fund dr Mike Lynn (a friend and co-speaker at several conferences) has got a mess of trouble thanks to standing up and speaking about flaws that affect all of us who come in contact with Cisco equipment. While he's settled with Cisco, he's still under investigation for claims of stealing intellectual property by giving the presentation after quitting. There is a legal defense fund for Mike at paypal under the account abaddon@io.com. Any funds donated which are not used will be donated to the EFF.
