Well it is absolutely miserable at the moment but I think I have something that will leave even Natasha and her Friday Funnies in convulsions. Today at Cardiff Crown Court, Wales, United Kingdom a young Hacker was sentenced for breaking into Internet Shopping Sites and harvesting their customers data including their Credit Card Numbers. He then posted all the numbers on his own web site and tried to point out the security issues. Now whatever you may think of the mis-guided nature of the hack the results were more than spectacular. You know even more than I do that if he had contacted these sites direct then very little would have happened and alot of covering up would have taken place. So like the young man he was he was also naive and so it is alleged now mentally ill, convenient, no. The investigation involved English/Welsh Police, the Home Office (State Dept.) very likely MI5 & MI6 to tap his phones, and the FBI, very likely the NSA (Shhhsh) also. The lad was sentenced to a three year community order and to seek help for his mental illness. What it is to you mean being one step ahead of the pace then. However the Judge it would appear said that at least he had a real sense of humour. APPARENTLY HE HAD USED BILL GATES OWN CREDIT CARD TO MAKE SURE THAT BILL GOT A READY SUPPLY OF.......VIAGRA!!!!!
