Earlier this morning there were two people interviewed on the BBC radio
4 Today program (this is considered the BBC's flagship morning
news/current affairs show on their serious nationwide talk radio
station) about this - one was a security consultant and another was a
member of/spokesman for the 'operation payback' group. One wonders why
the Met Police didn't have someone waiting to have a quiet chat with
the latter when he left the studio.
In this case the chap was in their central studio, but the earlier
technical expert wasn't (you can tell by the way he's introduced and
other verbal clues). I've done several such live interviews, in the
studio and both attended and unattended remote - they all work a bit
differently.
The police would have to act fast to get round there before he left the
building, but if the interview was from a regional studio he'd be long
gone.
On the other hand, if the BBC got hold of him, they must have some
contact details to trace him.
ps I was surprised the expert claimed that Visa's service had been taken
down by DDOS, despite being Akamaised.
