Kevin Free
An anonymous reader writes: "Surely many of you will remember that before there was ever a cry to 'Free Dimitry Sklyarov', Free Kevin Mitnick was the call of many. He was convicted on 'hacking' charges, though many on the Internet found the charges and trial to be unfair. He was freed in January 2000, but not allowed to touch a computer or log onto the Internet until January 20, 2003. See the story at CNN or read some background info at freekevin.com. "
1. Glorify Kevin and his criminal activities.
2. Glorify stealing copyrighted material via P2P.
Just don't violate the GPL, then 1 and 2 all of a sudden don't apply, and then people should be thrown in jail and sued til next week.
So download all your goat pr0n before Jan 20 ;-)
When I am king, you will be first against the wall.
You just couldn't resist taking a poke at the President, could you? Damn, what has happened to the world today? People are so incredibly disrespectful. When I was growing up, my parents taught me to be respectful of people in authority even when you disagree with them.
This is not only the polite thing to do, it's also prudent. After all, Confucius said, "Truly straightforward was the historiographer Yu. When good government prevailed in his state, he was like an arrow. When bad government prevailed, he was like an arrow. A superior man indeed is Chu Po-yu! When good government prevails in his state, he is to be found in office. When bad government prevails, he can roll his principles up, and keep them in his breast."

Kevin won't tell the US govt. some of the passwords for encrypted stuff on his computers and if the NSA can read it they aren't saying.
So, they've decided to adjust his attitude by kicking his ass as hard as they are legally allowed.
It's Christmas everyday with BitTorrent.
If he had been caught while Bush (dubya) was in power, he would have been sent to Camp X-Ray for "terrorist activities".

This part of the comment destroys any credibility that you may have had. You aren't seriously asserting that oil connections aren't a big part of current US foreign policy?
Not that the "bombing innocent people" gives the parent much cred either, but you know exactly what he meant, so drop the silly rhetoric.
A more important reason Bush gets no respect is that he stole the office, and ever since 9/11 he has been cynically using the issue to solidify his political base. I disgusts me that so many Americans are taken in by this. He isn't worthy of the job.
