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."
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.
Touché! Excellent reply! I've never asked anybody to up-mod a parent post (as far as I can recall, much less an apparent repudiation to my own post), but you've got the rhetorical skills that impress me. Give the parent an Underrated or Funny mod. Very good. Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it!
