Matthew writes: Stung by a seemingly never ending series of security breaches in its major products, Microsoft’s new tactic of placing a bounty on the heads of its corporate enemies seems to be working.

After being sold out by friends hoping to cash in on Microsoft’s bounty and keep their cloud city spam operation running smoothly, German uberhacker and member of the Open Source Alliance Hans Olo was captured by the German state police (”Die Sturmtroopen”) in an undisclosed location and subsequently incarcerated in Carbonite state prison. bounty hunter Bob Fett has taken custody of the suspected author of the Sasser worm and is transporting him from Germany to Redmond, Wa. Where he will be turned over to Jabba the Ballmer.
