Being of a somewhat volatile nature one thing that comes to mind is finding one of these miscreants 'first' and applying some 'social training' of the 'despicable kind'. Of course, I have promised that if on a jury for such a case I will NEVER find the person who applied the 'social training' guilty of anything related to that 'social training' or the person so 'trained.' Well, it's fun to think about. And catching a few of them and putting them away in prison with the really nasty criminals, since they are really nasty themselves, seems like a good idea. I do consider spam and capturing innocent machines to send spam as a violent crime even if the courts do not. It shows an EXTREME disconnect with society which makes them dangerous. {^_^}
