It's not a "hacking team" he was referring to a major leak from a company called Hacking Team. The leak potentially included a lot of unknown or lesser known exploits. As well as information about their business dealings..
Yeah definitely. If people actually knew the real extent of cyber attacks it would probably become the hottest topic in the media. Major push towards improving security, and definitely a push back against this FBI anti-encryption agenda.
Tell me about it. I got hacked twice in the last year, not because I have dark secrets on my computers but probably because of something I said about a certain interest group. It's best to think of the phrase Internet security as a contradiction in terms.

If it's not in the media, or very little, like hacking team, then that's what you've got to watch out for.
