One of the newsgroups I read reqularly is news.admin.net-abuse.email. This newsgroup deals with the ongoing war against spam. Today, a user posted a question about the email software that Senator Boxer was using.
One reader quickly established that the copy of the program she is using was pirated.
Can you believe it? A US Senator may be a common thief! Read the thread.
Nice catch. Wares codes in Boxer's office = Hacker on staff (which usually coincides with pirated software, pirated music, pirated mpegs/movies, and sometimes even pirated phone hacks for free long distance or cellular). Wonder how her new DCMA law is going to stop her own staff?
Dog bites man. Film at eleven.
It seems that the law does not apply to some of our representitives.
