The loss of our personal privacy these days is becoming a largely accepted fact and from my experiences has force society backwards somewhat as more and more people choose to go back to old means of interaction.

Having said that tho it is all well and good to round up the linch mob for this guy, but what about the next 14 year old kid that gets bored and decides to tab next doors internet connection or hack his high school rival’s mySpace page and virtually vandalise it… should we tar him with same brush???

I belive that this problem is not as one sided as it is being protrayed… some owness must be one the user as well… it is through lack of education that allows these people to undertake these attack… it is ultimately up to all of us to protect ourselves and to gain the knowledge to do so… it is not the governments role to control these people it is up to us to eliminate their “food source”…

So to the John Schiefer’s of the world… i hope you do rot in jail, and never see the light of a computer or internet again you deserve it, but to all those that complain and whinge that the net is not safe get a bit more proactive… you take steps to ensure your safety in the “real world” why should it be any different to the virtual world.
