Palin E-Mail Snoop Gets Year In Prison
netbuzz writes "David Kernell, whose prying into Sarah Palin's personal e-mail account caused an uproar two months before the 2008 presidential election, was today sentenced to a year and a day by a judge in Knoxville, Tenn. Kernell was convicted of misdemeanor computer fraud and felony obstruction of justice back in April. His attorney had argued for probation on the grounds that what Kernell did amounted to a prank that spun out of control."
And on Slashdot you can't say anything bad about liberals, Barak Hussein Obama, etc, that it's considered a BAD thing for the son of a Democrat congressman to go to prison for hacking Sarah Palin's email, while every commentator on this site would howl for the death penalty if the son of a Republican congressman had done the same to Dear Leader?
Violating people's privacy is wrong regardless of party affiliation.
Corporatism != Free Market
Kernell's only crime was his political alignment. It would only be consistent to do that as well.
Twitter supports and protects racists - by smearing their critics with the "Hate Speech" label.
...but I couldn't understand anything due to the incessant screeching.

I thought Ms. Palin was in favor of having her messages spied on. Oh, wait, she's only in favor of the government doing it "for her own protection." Yes, the same government that she wants to eliminate for being untrustworthy.
