What can we say about Barnaby Jack? Was his life cut short? Yes. Did he change how we think about device security? Absolutely. Did the work he left behind lay the groundwork for hacks to come? Without a doubt. By many accounts he took excesses to excess and paid the price. Dead at 36, for a reported drug overdose, he left a legacy, an impact in the community, and perhaps a warning. In the end, we still can’t forget him.
