Hi Donald,

Interesting (child-like) thoughts, but in reality, this society we live
in has laws.

If a person leaves the door to their home unlocked one evening (consciously
or mistakenly) and someone chooses to go inside and ransacks the place.
Sure the homeowner probably should have locked the door, but doing so
didn't give the attacker just cause to go inside and cause the person
grief.

It's still a crime. And if caught, the result will still be the same
whether you're in the USA, Canada, Germany or China...

Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Go directly to jail (or at least
pay some fines).

Darren

if the worm was active in anticipation of a patch that intoduced a new
exploit vector and it took advantage of that, is'nt the vendor ( microsoft
) to blame then? As well there was plenty of advanced warning on this
exploit long before msblast was an issue. It seems to me that it is each
admins responsiblity, if they were affected ( infected ) not the coder.
if this were the case the LastStage(of)Delerium would be the blamed party
for developing and releasing the exploit, but alas.. they are not of
USA orgin. SUE LITIGATE BLAME PROCECUTE

as long as the general public remains uneducated ( and many Fortune500
admins) we will continue to see this type of action against coders for
blame, not the people actualy responsible for allowing thier infrastructure
to become targets in the first place. im sure this ignorance is a byproduct
of the weak mind of most Americans as they are in a constant state to
blame other for thier own problems, this can be seen everywhere in todays
American society... commonly refered as to the "poor me" syndrome.. Q.
why did you murder the victim? A. my father never told me he loved me
( real answer - you pulled the triger )

Q. why was my network compromised?
A. because of someone else
( real answer - you suck at internet )
