Comment Come on Metnick is a Criminal & Crime==Wrong, (Score 1) 156
So a Crime is Wrong (as implied by this and other posts here)? Let us not forget:
It was once a Crime in this country for women to vote, and for certain people to assert that they were not the property of others. I could spout for days on this, but why bother?
For all you know, the OS I'm using to write this may be pirated, and I may be uploading 128bit-crypto to a server in China. Both of these are crimes, yes? If this were true, I as well would be a Criminal!
So, Kevin stole information. Yet he never used it. Yet this is a Crime, and Mitnick is a Criminal, and thats all we need to know. HE MUST PAY.
When they come for YOU, who will be left to speak? Would that the de-facto Law and its enforcement would follow morality, not the other way around.
