    I don't think it's a bug; Mozilla often removes configuration options. I have no idea why they've removed such an important feature, but I'm guessing that it's to make the browser "more accessible" to IE users.

    Doesn't your government also fingerprint children in schools, as if they're potential criminals? The automatic assumption of guilt and criminal intent is incredible at the moment.

    Browsers are getting worse, not better.

    I love the privacy and security features in FF 1.5, where you can easily disable images or cookies from external servers, without having to manually edit the config file. Those options are missing in FF 2.0.

    Mozilla and Microsoft are "borrowing" more features from each other's browsers, which means that, instead of having two individual browsers, FF is becoming shockingly similar to IE, with the only significant advantage of FF being the lack of OS integration.

    "1. pedophiles need to stay away from children. They should not be fishing or trying to help the succeed."

    Why do you say that? "Pedophile" does not mean "child molester", despite popular belief.

    If paedophiles did stay away from children, I can tell you for a fact that their would be a serious lack of teachers and a minor lack of social workers. You won't identify all pedophiles because the current stereotype is bunk.

    "2. There where no passwords, warnings, or age limitations on people reading the messages that I saw."

    Aren't you pleased that you can see what the supposed "monsters" are discussing, or do you prefer to believe the stereotypes? Why should there be any age limitations? I'm one of the most vocal activists and I'm in my late teens.

    "As to how legal they are I do not know. How beneficial they are. I would say not at all. Real medical intervention is needed not sitting around a message board."

    Medical intervention does not "cure" paedophilia. Support helps people to behave responsibly.

    Hi Stitches!

    I've read your post and I think I'm considering giving it a point for "funny". Oh, were you serious? I'll assume you are serious.

    First of all, if you read everything that Abel says, her numbers don't add up, do they? Try doing the math yourself, if you don't want to believe a pervert.

    The fact is that I don't believe Abel because I have done the math and she doesn't appear to be unbiased on this subject.

    Now, could you please tell me what is wrong with the study by Australian Police which found that only 14.8% of child sex abusers in their country were even suspected to be paedophiles? What does that say about your claim that 95% of paedophiles molest and that they each molest hundreds of boys? It shows that something went wrong with Abel's statistics, doesn't it?

    BTW, when JD asked Daydreamer about her past with her mother, it seemed to strike a raw nerve, didn't it? I'm not surprised though. Despite those awful revelations, you and your friends did help me to sort things out with my Dad and have a GREAT vacation, so I should at least say thanks for that :)

  16. Do you know what "paedophile" means? on The Story of the Pedophile-catching Hacker · · Score: 2, Informative

    "My heart agrees with you: pedophiles are scum, and as a parent, their mass death wouldn't bother me one bit."

    Well it would have to be a mass murder, because there are a lot of us and we aren't going anywhere. You may put a few hundred paedophiles in prison on child porn charges and some of the 10% of child sex abuses which are committed by paedophiles might result in prison sentences (and rightly so if it's sex abuse), however if you think you're going to have the 33% of people who have at least some attraction to children, or the 5-25% who are technically paedophiles killed, you're fooling yourself. It's not illegal to be a paedophile, because it is not illegal to exist, however it is illegal to abuse children and download child porn.

    For the record, the huge majority of us spend time with children, without needing sexual relationships. I spend time with my younger brother's friend and I'm going to become a teacher. I don't need sex with young boys, even though I find them sexually attractive; spending time with them is enough.

    People won't be able to fight paeds so hard in the future, because we're fighting back. See AN if you want an example.

    And, if you're really so terrified of us, maybe you should learn more

    Don't give away their secrets! They don't want people to know that it's the people who are in relationships with adults who commit around 90% of child molestation offences. They don't want the Care Act to be passed, which will end most of these child abuse cases.
