  1. Re:Great on Anonymous Threatens Robin Hood Attacks Against Banks · · Score: 1

    Anonymous = dozens or hundreds of people
    Middle class = hundreds of millions of people.

    Middle class = the top 1% of the worlds wealthiest people.

    A large portion of the worlds population don't have enough food.

    CEO of a company that fired 10,000 people last year and lost $5 billion? Earn a severance package of $100 million. Gamble with other people's money on the market and send $500 billion up in smoke? Get a $2 million bonus.

    Then it is upto the share holders to act.

    The occupiers like to whine about CEOs being paid large salaries. But that money doesn't belong to the occupiers in the first place, corporations have the right to do what they like with that money, it is upto the investors to hold them to account. Not some third party of squatters.

    Anonymous has always taken victims wherever they find them. This is nothing new.

    So I am not sure why this hacker group would even entertain a pathetic thought of calling themselves Robin Hoods.

    Because they have an ego to feed.

    I hate IM's because people assume you're there and available for chat. It's the same with the phone.

    Putting up your own unencrypted access point under your desk is not a good idea for security. I've had to deal with this before.

    Things like that should be sackable offences. I don't know what surprises me more, the fact that people do it in the first place or the fact that they are surprised to get caught. It's like they believe no one is watching.

    Don't be so quick to damn youtube with the others--there are many instructional/informational videos that can be work related--depending of course what job you are trying to do.

    Oh yea, and don't forget bit-torrent is only for Linux builds; right?

    The poor who don't want to immunize will be forced to due to financial considerations.

    If they are taking from the community in the form of welfare then it's only fair that they give something back, herd immunity is a good way to do that. It's cheap too.

    Would that be the "rights" to a free-income courtesy of the tax payer.

    I know people who refuse to deal with Hotmail users as a result.

    The reason they do it is to cut down on spam complaints from their end user.
