Juju, you're a warm and wonderful human being and I love you as much as Dave will allow. BUT, I'm having a hard time with this.
This scumbag, piece of shit, mother fucker doesn't deserve to have his life ruined? If his life, is indeed ruined, which I didn't see any indication of in the article, who's responsible? His parents? The school system? Society? It couldn't be HIMSELF.
He's 18 years old. Why when I was 18, I was responsible for everything, in 3 feet of snow, up hill, both ways.
This guy had what, 7 or 8 computers and modified this virus, so I'd assume he's more than a little familiar with the cyber world and the consequences of his actions on others.

Why? As I just pointed out, not because he wasn't cyber savy. That leaves me the only other reason that comes to mind. Now I could be wrong, but IMHO he just DIDN'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK about anybody else. How much grief or cost to anyone else never crossed his mind because he was doing his own thing.
We're not talking about a double parker or the kids with the boom box blocking the sidewalk, although it's a symtom of the same attitudes. And I for one am sick and tired of it.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll go back to the post on castration.
