Hey, my father is a university professor in the dept of Physics at the local university and he's written 3-4 books, unless you're a big shot you don't get paid by commission. You just get a sum of money (not even that much, 10-15k) and you get no other profits from the book. So when you pirate you probably aren't hurting the poor guy who wrote it, just the publishers.

About to finish Software engineering degree, what does one do to get involved in security? My uni sure as hell has no 'formal subjects' on the issue and I don't know how I'd get involved. Internship? Are there online courses? Or do I have to just go ham and do self-research?

I'm sorry, I've raced in alpine skiing from ages 12-22 and I have to wonder, how could anyone survive a FIS approved downhill without two full legs? Unless by downhill skiing you just mean alpine skiing. Downhill skiing involves 30-40m long jumps and trying to turn at speeds over 65mph
