Hakan,
Sorry to hear about your experience. It made me think about how I can
secure my home - so at least one person will benefit from your sharing
it with us.
Good luck with your servers. I'm in the computer business too - I know
what a hassle it is.
-Mike

Dear Hakan
I'm so sorry to hear this bad news. That is a severe violation, and it
can take a little time to get over it. I'm sure I can say you have
everybody's sympathy and support at the Biofuel list, if that's of any
use to you. Please let us know if there's something we can do to help.
Backup disks gone, aarghhh!! But well done Foxy!
You're so right about "winning hearts and minds". I lived under just
those conditions for years on end, and in more than one country. The
SS is never loved, no matter what uniform they might be wearing, if
any. It's the way bullies think, unable to tell the difference between
respect and fear: if they abuse you and frighten you then you'll
respect them, right. Most people grow out of it by the time they leave
primary school, except the arrested development cases.
Take care of yourself Hakan - I hope you're having a good sleep right
now!
Regards
Keith
26 hours ago, I woke up to the sound of our dogs barking. I slept
hard, so she probably gone on for a while. When she would not stop, I
went up to tell her of. She was standing in the front door that was
open, just as much as she could not get out. After looking in my
office, I discovered that my computer (a notebook) was gone and so
was my wife's, further checking proved that some more valuables was
gone. If it wasn't for Foxy, probably or lot more would have been gone.
It was an enormous feeling of violation and I spent the whole day
with the police and to sort things out. Discovered also that my CD
case with the normal and recent back ups was gone. Maybe it was good
that I did not wake up a few minutes earlier, because it would
probably led to that ether myself or others would have been hurt. I
was in a mood that I easily could have picked a fight.
It has taken me 26 hours without sleep, to get that far that I can
send this letter. I also had to secure the remote servers and change
a lot of passwords. Not that anyone, including me, belive that they
would be able or want to connect and do anything. Only the risk,
means that I must work hard and fast in the right order to minimize
the possibilities.
It is places where normal honest people, suddenly and without any
obvious reason can get their front door knocked down. They will be
searched and the intruders will claim whatever they like to label as
illegal, without proper definitions, and arrest normal people like
yourself and members of your family. It is worse and even more
humiliating. How can any sane person even expect or at least say that
this would lead to "winning the hearts and minds", the one who says
so, must be pretty stupid or lying. The people that belive them must
be even more stupid, or be without the slightest capacity of
imagination and understanding.
Hakan
