curmugeonFirst we have a hacker getting his hand slapped for hijacking the Al-jazeera site. Some might think of him as a hero, but in international circles, he is a low-life that broke the rules the Internet lives by.
Now, we have Oren Hatch proposing that hacking of computers of users of peer to peer networks should be allowed. In other words, the RIAA would be given the right to violate your computer, by hacking through firewalls or other security software and destroy any and all data on your hard drive. What in hell is he thinking?
