Additionally, he has appeared on GAMERadio, Infonomicon, The MindWar, Phreak Phactor, and HPR (Hacker Public Radio).
His most controversial article was entitled "Hacking google Adwords" at DefCon13 which drew criticism from such people as Jason Calacanis.
[9] StankDawg appeared as a subject on the television show The Most Extreme on Animal Planet where he demonstrated the vulnerabilities of wireless internet connections.
[10] Blake chose the handle "StankDawg" in college, where he started a local hacking group which became known as the "Digital DawgPound".
The stated mission of the DDP is to propagate a more positive image of hackers than the negative mass media stereotype.
His stated reasons were that he had made many friends in the hacking scene and thought that it would be useful to have everyone begin working together in a more organized fashion.
He was motivated by the fact that there had been other well-known Hacker Groups in the 1980s who had accomplished great things in the hacking world such as the LoD and the MoD.
He saw some people who he thought were insanely brilliant individuals who seemed to have the same mindset and positive attitude towards hacking that he did so he decided to approach a couple of them to see if anyone would be interested in forming a group and working together.
The DDP communicated and worked together on StankDawg's personal site, which was open to anyone who wanted to join in on the fun.
In 2002, after watching the web site grow quickly, it was decided that a new community needed to be created for these like-minded hackers who were gathering.
The DDP maintains a blog "which they refer to as a "blawg" (Obviously a play on the intentionally misspelled word "Dawg").
Posts by DDP members have been featured on other technology-related sites such as those of Make Magazine,[13][14] HackADay,[15][16] Hacked Gadgets,[17][18] and others.
This project was created in an attempt to bring the hacking community back together, working towards a common, positive goal of reclaiming the name of hackers.
Started and hosted by Blake in 2003, it featured different co-hosts each week, and covered different aspects of hacker culture and computer security.
Topics included phreaking, identity theft, cryptography, operating systems, programming languages, free and open source software, Wi-Fi and bluetooth, social engineering, cyberculture, and information about various hacker conventions such as PhreakNIC, ShmooCon, H.O.P.E., and Def Con.
For the first episode of the fourth season, BRR had its first ever broadcast in front of live audience during the HOPE 6 convention in New York City, June 2006.
As the forums grew there were many posts where people were looking for others in their area where other hacker meetings did not exist or were not approachable for some reason.
DocDroppers allows users to submit articles to a centralized place where they can be searchable, easily maintained, and easy to read and reference.
Recently, this project has grown to include encyclopedia style entries on many hacking topics after many were deleted from sites such as Wikipedia.
