Adult Website Use At Work Leads To Hacker Conviction
safesorry notes that several sources are talking about a recent tale of woe about Richard Wolf, a lonely guy looking for love in all the wrong places. Wolf used his work computer to visit the Adult Friend Finder website and upload personal nudes to prospective "friends." Now he's been convicted under a "hacker" law targeted at employees who steal data or access information they shouldn't. "Richard Wolf acknowledged that his behavior was inappropriate when he used his work computer to upload nude photos of himself to an adult web site and view other photos on porn sites, but he didn't think he should be convicted of hacking for doing so."

Wow this story is getting shittier and shittier.
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
"If somebody else had been on an internet site studying horticulture, I don't think he would have been prosecuted.
He was studying whore-to-culture... isn't that close enough?
I am not stubborn. I am right!
And thus, it is our responsibility, as the voters who elected the folks who set that policy. Well, assuming we live in the same state.
I work for a state government, too. The voters evidently don't want us spanking it on their dime. Wasting time on Slashdot is fine, it seems, because the filters let me come here, but sausage polishing (or fingering the sushi, I guess...) is a no no.
If you want to spank it on the taxpayer's dime, do it in a bathroom stall like the rest of us.

There'd be an entire domain available for Slashdot dupes to be kept in? That would be awesome! Then CmdrTaco wouldn't need to host them on the main site!
It's a small world and it smells funny; I'd buy another if it wasn't for the money; Take back what I paid (SoM)
I am still stuck at step one...
They found a nude picture of an employee on a work computer and...call the cops?
The cops and DA must be awfully friendly with the treatment plant bosses, i can't imagine calling that in from work here and getting any kind of coherent response from the cops. Especially as they didn't care about the employee that stole nearly $10,000 in merchandise because they couldn't 'prove' it. (apparently any one is likely to have a stack of adult diapers, foam bed pads, 20,000 latex gloves, etc in their garage just like their employer...)
or is work the last place I want to have a boner
"can you stand and give your presentation"

Coworkers thought I was coughing up a lung. Damn cold.

Clearly you haven't been married to a professional dominatrix. Ever met a pregnant lady with a bullwhip? Oh, what I would have given for midnight trips for pickles and ice cream...

Hate to tell ya, but Slashdot has been around for a while now.
As stated in the article, he would not have been prosecuted if he would have looked at horticultural Web sites [and uploaded pictures of flowers].
Unless he worked for Monsanto.
I guess this is my temper talking, but this guy should be given at least five digits and rights to kick the judge in the crotch. Hard. With boots. Metal boots. Not only is this idiotic, it makes a mockery of the justice system. Use some goddamned ****ing common sense for godssake. The man is a man, not a criminal. This makes the U.S. look as bat**** insane as Syria.

It's not stupid. It's Advanced.
The guy is DEATH! The moment your hate target answers the phone, and he answers, shouldn't that be a major clue that you got the wrong guy?
Or even dead
Anyway I have reliabe information that he is alive and well and currently playing poker with Princess Di and Elvis in a small town somewhere just East of Norwich in England.
Qwghlm?
