Mafiaboy Gets His Wrist Slapped

An anonymous reader writes: "Mafiaboy, the Canadian 'hacker' that did the DOS on Ebay, Amazon, Excite, CNN, etc. has gotten 8 months in a youth detention centre and 1 year probation. Prosecuters think this will be a message to 'hackers' that do this kind of thing. I say the message should be to the scriptkiddies who obviously don't know how to cover their tracks, to at least learn to do so before they download malicious software." The other message is that even if you get caught, your sentence will be ridiculously easy.

    ...than a 757 crash into my building. It's kind of hard for me to be pissed at someone who did a DOS attack on some website. Don't you think we now have bigger things to worry about then how some poor haXOR d00d inconveniencing our daily online purchases??

      What do you mean... That was WAR... 1. JAPAN declared war to the US at Pearl Harbor 2. JAPAN attacked the US without any warning 9.11 was an act of war, so we are going to treat it like that... PS You are a COWARD...

    What the hell is wrong with you? It's not ALL Arabs, Islamic Practitioners, or other "towel heads" as you so lovingly put it. You're a damned biggot fool if you think that's the way to go.

    Yes, the dead, dying and injured DO deserve justice. But not that kind of justice. True Justice will find the responsible parties and bring them in. Once we have them, I agree that their human rights should be thrown out the window. But not on the genocidal scale that you're talking about.

    Note to Taco: This AC thing is getting out of hand. I suggest removing the anonymous option so these fools will either put a name to the idiocy or shut up alltogether. As for my comments on this topic, I think Mafiaboy got his. I know alot of "script kiddies" who think they are hackers. Morons. They deserve what Mafiaboy got. They never sat for hours with a WAR Dialer and a 2400bps modem doing the grunt work...

    Fuck you. I don't support any of that shit. Why don't you just get off your horse there, chico. I'm an Irish American, but most of all, I'm an AMERICAN. I just don't believe that ALL Arabs, etc., are terrorist like your narrow-minded ass. Piss off. My friend lost his cousin in that attack in NYC, so I feel as much pain as any other American...
