Palin Email Snoop Found Guilty On 2 Charges
netbuzz writes "A federal jury in Knoxville today has convicted David Kernell, 22, of two charges — misdemeanor computer fraud and felony obstruction of justice — in connection with the 2008 episode where he accessed the personal Yahoo email account of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and then initiated a worldwide rummaging of its contents. The obstruction charge carries a maximum prison term of 20 years."
Identity theft? I'm not sure how much it would bother me if Sarah Palin really did lose her identity.
From the article:
You can't retry a deadlocked kernel. The only way out is a hard reset.
It was not his fault, it was a Kernell Panic.
Identity theft? I'm not sure how much it would bother me if Sarah Palin really did lose her identity.
That's really petty.
The big deal with the Obama case is that the question was "Where were you born?" and Obama filled it in honestly. They're trying to cover it up! This is all part of the conspiracy, man.
Identity theft? I think they need to bring Tina Fey up on that charge!
I've abandoned my search for truth; now I'm just looking for some useful delusions.
Except it wasn't the 'obvious password' which did them in, it was the lame drop-box security questions. Make it so all security questions are chosen when the account is created, and not selected from some stupid list, and your problem is solved.
Please answer your security question: "What country were you born in ?"
> "Kenya"

i'll one better you.. wearing gloves to prevent fingerprints from being left is obstruction!
Hah! Not committing robbery in the first place is obstruction since that would leave them without anything with which to charge you!
