-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 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).

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 ) muh 2 bytes, morning_wood -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Note: This signature can be verified at https://www.hushtools.com/verify Version: Hush 2.3 wkYEARECAAYFAj9QqKIACgkQVkUxEVe6w3tiUACdE6EKxDx9XneySVWt9tXT3nzOp2MA nR8r2bPtQ9ZpsW4NbDsJs4MKM7w5 =YOHD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
