Apparently, Hakin9 magazines peer-review process could use some work:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/10/05/hakin9_silliness/

An article was submitted which disclosed that:

"The software engineering approach to NMAP is defined not only by the 
investigation of RPCs, but also by the practical need for Lamport clocks. The 
notion that cyberneticists interfere with RPCs is generally well- received. In 
fact, 
few biologists would dis-agree with the improvement of A* search, which 
embodies 
the technical principles of theory. Obviously, event-driven modalities and web 
browsers are based entirely on the assumption that extreme programming and 
digital-to-analog converters are not in conflict with the deployment of massive 
multiplayer online role-playing games."

This is, of course, like the rest of the article, complete nonsense.

If you'd like to pour through the rest of the article to see if they left any 
sense in 
there anywhere, it's at http://nmap.org/misc/hakin9-nmap-ebook-ch1.pdf

There is, in fact, no recognized principle by which the propriety
or impropriety of government interference is customarily tested.
People decide according to their personal preferences.
