There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
The Staff of SOH
I can't print what I'd do to these snotty vermin but I'd sure make certain that it was well publicized as a warning to the rest.
1. Sorry, it isn't. Bad analogy, and as analogies go it doesn't even make sense. A two month old baby wouldn't be capable of being cognizant of such a thing, for starters. I can think of another 20 or so holes in your anaolgy just off the top of my head.
2. So, you've been a victim of a Hacker, but you sloughed it off as no big deal, and even maintain a defence of the Hacking principles. OK, then they should f*ck with you and leave the rest of us alone. I'm good with that, lol, but you'd soon change how you feel about hackers. Trust me.
3. OK, you have me there. A little rebellion IS good once in a while. I've rebelled countless times. But I've never broken into someones house/car/whatever. I haven't made an intrusion or trespassed on them in a way that they feel vulnerable and become untrusting...or cost them alot of $$$$$.
Every Hacker breaks into somewhere they don't belong, and if they don't do anything malicious while they're there, they've still broken in to somewhere they aren't wanted. That makes it an intrusion/trespass, and is damaging in it's own right. You've already told a few people in this thread to not forget something, but you seem to be forgetting that Hacking is a crime, therefore Hackers are criminals.
4. Is this statement supposed to validate Anonymous and his/her damaging and unlawfull business practices, or insult the crew who keep SOH running, by in effect calling them abunch of nobody's? And, by frying fish, I suppose you mean Anonymous has bigger things to ruin and f*ck up.
OK, I understand that probably much of the way you feel (as well as the other guy in this thread who supports Anonymous) has more to do with challenging big business than it does with hacking. Hacking is just the means to and end. OK, there are many aspects of big business that I don't like either..like upper management using a publicly held corporation as their own personal piggy bank, while mistreating the people who work there. Yep. That sh*t annoys me. But, Hackers suck. For arguments sake, we'll call Anonymous a Good Guy, and remove him from the equation...Hackers still suck.
Gotta go. Ciao.
