Personally, I've always felt that the most effective way to combat these types of assholes is to render the system ineffective by filling it with trash.
The fact is, the only reason Pinkerton sees a market here is because there is a portion of our poputlation, the power mongers, who are willing to spend our own tax dollars in order to maintain their power base. Just as the US Census is being used to manipulate and maintain power, so is the Pinkerton kiddie snitch web site.
I'd suggest that we all logon to the web site and "report" our own slashdot.com handles as "suspects" that need investigating in order to burn the available $ resources so that they aren't available to harass the truely inoccent, somewhat strange, but possibly brilliant children who would otherwise be investigated. After a few years of throwing tax dollars at this type of effort, perhaps even Pinkertons customers would eventually give up because of the futility of the effort.
