    when your home becomes your prison you have done a very bad thing. however, the thing you did was so bad and high profile (ie genocidal chilean dictator, high ranking mafia boss etc), that you dont have to prison like a normal criminal. you get stay at home and watch kilroy all day. a punishment worse than death

  18. this reminds me of another argument.... on Amnesty Calls Shenannigans on MS, Sun, Cisco · · Score: 1, Insightful

    namely the involving attempts by various governing bodies to outlaw "hacking tools" because they can be used for nefarious purposes. now whenever this argument comes up on /. you get all the "what about the security industry?" arguments which i am firmly in favor of, but what is the difference between writing a tool that could be used for malicious purposes, ie exploit code, proof-of-concept code etc, and posting it public forums, ie bugtraq, where they are available to anyone, including those with malicious intent, and this situation. ok some differences obviously, actively selling and all that but still, principally the same yes?

  22. right idea on Microsoft vs. Modded Xboxes · · Score: 0

    the thing about this that gets on my tits is that the unique id is used to permanently ban the modded box. now, alright, fair enough, dont let modded boxes on, cheaters, really annoying, etc, but why not simply deny access to the service from a modded box, ideally with a "sorry not allowed on with your modded box, please turn off mod and try again", why the permanent exclusion?

    And a voice was heard crying in the wilderness: "in the beginning was the hunger in the eyes of the management guys. And he saw that it was lust for profit, and he new that it was bad. So gave unto Babylon Linux, and he saw that it was good. But the management guys still had the hunger. And he was sad for he new that their lust could not be satisfied." As it was in the beginning, now and ever shall be. World without end. Amen
