Snoop Dogg Joins the War On Cybercrime

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday September 1, 2010 @10:22AM from the scanning-fo-shizzle dept.

wiredmikey writes "Think you can bust out some silly fresh rhymes on the subjects of hacking, identity theft and computer viruses? In a somewhat untraditional partnership, Snoop Dogg and Symantec's Norton want you to show off your their lyrical skills on the subject of cybercrime and enter the 'Hack is Wack' cybercrime rap contest. If you have the skills and bust out the phattest rap, you'll receive round trip airfare for two to Los Angeles along with two days and two nights' hotel stay to meet with Snoop's management, learn more about his business. You'll also get two tickets to a Snoop Dogg concert and a new laptop pimped out with Norton Internet Security 2011."

Having Norton on your laptop is not "pimped out" unless you mean by being bent over forwards and having something being put into you, and someone else raking the cash....then I would agree.....funny these days how you get a rapper along side your PR department, and all of a sudden you think you have a right to use the words "pimped out" and "dawg" with your product. Let's just say before pimped out, I would consider the words cursed, pre-wrecked, diminished,
destroyed or even bricked as possible first alternatives....
