OT: These OT posts are becoming awfully annoying.
You use OE 5.50 (though I could also tell you which critical patches you
have); post through IP 66.30.172.112, and your ISP is Comcast Cable. From
there I can use your home IP to query the servers about your name and some
account information; eventually finding my way back to enough information
(name/address/phone) to get to your social security number. Once a person
gets that far, a $70 check gets me your credit, academia, work history,
property ownership, military, driving, and criminal records. This
internet is not the most anonymous thing we all once thought it was, is it?
This is why some of us go to shit like Teranews for our posting, or use
Mixmaster Type II remailers when we really want to cross the line or push
the envelope of legal vs. stalking. Guess which account I used to say
that. 17 years ago I ran a pirate BBS and collected over 1,000 viruses and
trojans. What were you doing in computers 17 years ago?
