Congratulations to Mr. Brandt for his continuing effort to prove he is not a public figure by hitching himself to this controversy and getting quoted by the New York Times yet again. In his attacks on Wikipedia for creating an article about him, he claimed he was in fact not a public figure, despite his half dozen plus appearances in the Times and more in other publications. It's obvious from his use of this controversy to promote himself and from his hit list of Wikipedia editors that he has no real interest in privacy issues, he's just pissed that the Wikipedia article about him had links to two sites critical of him, an article in Salon (http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2002/08/29/goog le_watch/) and http://www.google-watch-watch.org/.
The "author" of most (all?) of the "news" on the 247news site, David Alexander, is Sollog himself. No doubt all of you are shocked and surprised by this news. Here's one reporter's amusing tale of dealing with Sollog and Alexander: http://www.citypaper.net/articles/022102/sl.howcol.shtml
"I deliberately posted a couple ultra-flames specifically to get kicked out. I just wanted to see how long it would take. Turned out to be a couple hours. "
Oh, this is too much.
It's bad enough that now, so many months after your continually offensive behavior (and no, I didn't have to take bones' word for it, I witnessed it) got you kicked off of E2, you're still bitter and angry about it, all the while denying your bitterness and anger. It's bad enough that you're lying about your behavior and your plagiarism. But this is far too silly.
They didn't kick you off, you wanted to be kicked off. Right. My God, do you have any idea how childish you sound?
