(I feel like I need to clarify something after upvoting this.)
You're right, the "it's who you are that matters" card spells out resigned bullshit about most of the times someone plays it.
But it's not what they do that matters either: like the author of the article said himself, what they're doing is mostly kiddie stuff. Using well-known tools and techniques to goof around with well-documented security flaw 'patterns'.
And so they're not crafting anything either, they're just wasting humanity's bandwidth. In that sense I agree with you.
