I'm getting sick and tired of "black hats" expressing their "freedom" to screw up the rest of the world to teach everyone a lesson about how fragile things really are and how we're all ignorant dolts who don't deserve the keyboards in front of us.
Life is fragile, buildings are fragile, bridges are fragile, but society works to MINIMIZE RISK and IMPROVE QUALITY by working together to FIX THINGS.
I'm not "free" to yell "Fire!" in a theatre. I'm not "free" to ignore traffic signals if they inconvenience me. I'm not "free" to jepordized the national security of my country.
These people shouldn't be "free" to expound on their intellectual prowess and then say "We know what's going on, but we're not telling".
They are immature, little brats and should be made accountable to the system they are part of whether they realize or accept that fact or not.
