The internet has been at my fingertips for atleast going on 6 years. I am no where near old, yet not quite as young as this "Mafia Boy" chap. My age is below 20 yet i'm not a minor, so do the math. I can't believe it's all these people in the world like louis Freeh who seem to believe that stopping what we do and showing our names, faces, and telling people. "DO NOT CALL ANYONE, DO NOT WRITE EMAIL, DO NOT TOUCH A COMPUTER." What does all this stop. Sure script kiddies have made a mad wave of mischeif, but how many times in the 50's did some smart aleck child steal licorice in a candy store. Or chuck rocks at another child. sure the rocks hurt but what would it accomplish throwing that kid in jail and labeling him something he's not or is for the rest of his life. Now "Mafia-Boy" is another name on the list that Freeh keeps on building. I say that if you want to stop what you are afraid to stop, or not let lose what you can not understand. Live a day in the body of a legit Computer Security Specialist. After all, we are all after the same thing I think, knowing our systems and yours, inside and out. Is curiosity really that much of a crime to smite ones future and name.?
