  2. Re:People with unreliable ISP-provided email on Spamming Becoming Financially Infeasible · · Score: 1

    Sending mail from home will often get you blacklisted for spam. Unless it's a static ip, even then I don't like the odds.

  3. Security through Obscurity on The Lesson of Recent Hacktivism · · Score: 1

    Anyone who doesn't believe in Security through Obscurity should post their passwords and credit card numbers on /.

    So on a bike you can run out of power. That can't happen to a car (Not mine anyway). It's always ready with more than enough fuel to make the trip.

    The problem with electric bikes is they have incredibly poor range and I'm doubtful about claims that they are any better for the environment.

    So can I throw a brick through your window?
    Seriously it's just to show how crummy an average home's security is.

    Don't punish me; punish the glass manufacturer.

  8. Re:Am I the only one? on LulzSec Offers to Take Revenge On Sega Hackers · · Score: 2

    At least LulzSec admit to doing things for their own gain.

    Anonymous on the other hand like to kid themselves into thinking they have a valid cause; it's seriously sad.
    LulzSec are at least honest about why they do things.

  9. Re:$27,000 is not that small on Judges Berate Spammer For 'Incompetent' Litigation · · Score: 2

    Because the US courts have no jurisdiction over them. It would be unreasonable to expect them to respond, I know I wouldn't.

    Mom's calling. Dinner is ready.

    If you spend any time in their IRC you'll routinely see things like.

    "Sorry anons, have to go to school now" and
    "My Dad doesn't want me to do this" also

  18. Re:Prison would make more sense on School District Hit With New Mac Spying Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    The perpetrator still needs to be punished.

    The reason things like this happen is because there is currently zero accountability for the perpetrator.

    With your own domain you are also less likely to receive spam from a dictionary attack. The dictionary spammers focus on the popular domains for obvious reasons.

  20. Re:Serious question; on Germany To End Nuclear Power By 2022 · · Score: 1

    Even Greenpeace only puts the death toll from Chernobyl at 200,000 from 1990 to 2004, less than two thirds of what American Coal accomplished over the same time, and they didn't even have an accident to blame. That's just business as usual.

    Greenpeace just flat out lies.
    They are frauds and the irony is that they are killing the planet in pursuit of a fairy tail wonderland.

    "Renewables" are even worse for the environment than Nuclear. However they are probably better than fossil.

    So do you believe I should be allowed to email your boss and colleagues / friends / partner / newspapers / whoever else that you are a sadistic paedophile with details of your illicit sexual encounters?

    Yes, that is the price we must pay if we want free speech.

    Freedom of Speech is the ability to speak without consequence

    Wrong. Dead wrong in fact. With every freedom comes the responsibility of using it wisely.

    Who is to decide what is and isn't reasonable?

  25. Re:Freedom Of Speech, eh? on Twitter Reveals User Details In UK Libel Case · · Score: -1

    Freedom of speech does not include the right to slander or libel people you don't like, and it absolutely does not include the right to do so anonymously.

    Of course it does. What part of free speech do you not understand?
    Freedom of Speech is the ability to speak without consequence and anonymity is vital to ensuring that the speaker can avoid persecution for that speech.

    Libel law is a violation of free speech and should be abolished.
