Examples abound in Macalope articles where he skewers anti-Apple pundits. Here is a recent example:

You are like a supernova of exploding wrongness. You are a danger to nearby solar systems.

Terje,

Your post to this list, using profanity, is unacceptable.  Do not, under any 
circumstances, use profane language when posting to this group.

Thank you,

Mark

Subject: Re: To The List About The Recent Spam

Yeah, very strange. I am fascinated about how the fuck can this be possible? 
Turned off my voice over. Some kind of script maybe. To me it is surprising and 
interesting how it can be done, but most of all i don’t want to excperience it 
again. Very bad.

Take care

I can’t seem to correct it. I went in and unchecked checkboxes but I still have 
3 voices. I guess what I’m needing is step by step instruction. I have a call 
in to accessibility support for follow-up on the spam issue.. Perhaps he can 
help me solve this. This didn’t seem to be a place to save changes.

In VoiceOver utility, under speech category, set all your voices to Alex and 
Alex to be your default voice.  It seems as if somehow the announcements are 
made by a different voice rather than default.

hope this helps.

V/O F8 doesn’t do anything on my computer. Well since then I wound up with 3 
different voices. Alex reads the message but Victoria and Fred seem to make the 
announcements.  I don’t like this.  I have no idea why I can’t fix it.

Marie,

Press VO-F8 to launch the VO Utility.  VO-Shift-DownArrow on the Category table.  Arrow 
to the Speech option.  VO-Shift-UpArrow to stop interacting & move right to the 
voice options.  Press VO-SpaceBar to select it. Down Arrow to the Configure option.  
Pick any other voice than Alex, Bruce, or Fred.  Wait for it to download & then 
select it.  That’ll do it.

You see there’s an ass on the list, who has figured out a string of text that, 
when inserted into the subject line of an email, causes Alex to shut down.  
It’s real cute.  I hope he reaps what he’s sown.

Hope this helps,

CJ

My v/o keeps shutting down.  What can I do to fix it?

Marie Lyons. I had called disability support and they couldn’t
figure it out.  Help greatly appreciated

Hello Everyone,

I became aware of the offensive emails and the deliberate string
to shut down the Alex screen reader this morning.

At that time, I looked at the email address of the sender and
recognized it as one that I had just banned, last night, from the
V iPhone list, for posting offensive language.

For whatever reason, when I attempted to locate her/his address in
the members list of this group, I could not find it.  Yet, the
posts continued to come to the list.

I was away from my computer for most of the day but, upon
returning home about an hour or so ago, I managed to locate the
user and first, change his/her posting privileges and then remove him from the 
list.

To be quite honest, the account I located was unlike any I've seen
in any groups.  So, it is possible, more messages will come
through but I think I located the right address.  Only time will tell.

Please know that I, on behalf of Cara, am paying close attention
and am doing all I can to rid the list of such nuisances.

For the record, the malicious string shut down my speech
synthesizer, as well.  Very, very annoying.  Like others in this
groups, I had to use my Windows computer with a non-mac screen
reader to discover the source of the problem.

Please know that we are in this together and, together, we'll get
through it.

Mark
