Hate to say it, but in this case, vigilante type action seems to have had the desired result.
Why do you hate to say this ? If governments fail to do anything about spammers, possibly because they don't know how, the only option is vigilantism. If the only way to stop these guys is to put their names in the paper or mention them on television shows, so be it.
Personally I wouldn't mind seeing them being dragged down the street to be tarred and feathered.
Parent moderated as Funny ? C'mon, this is INSIGHTFUL ! If you tested any Microsoft "OS" would you say it is wanting because of it's total failure to interoperate with any non-Microsoft OS ? Oh no, wait a minute, because MS is a market-leader every other OS should confirm to it's, in this posters humble opinion, fscked up. Yeah right !
USA TODAY: Is there a scenario by which you would at some point consider porting Microsoft applications into Linux?
BG: There's no consideration of that at this point.

Have ANY of you people used blackbox?
I've been using it for about 4 years I think.
It's fast, it's lean, it's finished !!!Why mess with a winning team?

People here eat a lot (and I mean almost every single day) of potatoes, the national dish is mashed potatoes with some veggies and a piece of meat.
I really think a lot of people here are going to have a major culture-shock when suddenly their "stamppot" (no really, that's what they call the dish I mentioned) is purple.
Not a big surprise when you eat potatoes every day;-)
My signature has been changed now,I should have done that before I posted. I want to apologise for placing it here at this moment and just having this sig. I understand some people will hate me for putting it there in the first place.
It's a quote from a song, it does NOT represent my view on things.
I fear that a lot of people will find it easy to wipe out an entire nation when they can't even find it on a globe.
I understand that when something terrible is done to you and your country, you'll want retribution.
I can't honestly say I wouldn't feel the need for retribution myself.
But does that make it right or justified?

I think they should donate the barin to President Bush, he can REALLY use one.
You guys never heard of xconsole ? Shame on you !
Maybe compiling a kernel is WAY out of your league.
