Going dark...

Next week they redirect www.update.microsoft.com to a hacker site and as half the planet automatically update their windows (without their consent), they go dark as their windows stop booting.

As the only one not affected would be thoses doing torrents that disabled their windows update, Comcast turn it's internet service OFF because there is no legitimate business to be done there.

You think it's not doable ?
(that's exactly what they want to justify what's coming...)

Unix junk

How reassuring that IANA and ICANN are using Linux, the amateur's version of an operating system from the late 60's. Hey, why not switch to MS-DoS Windows?

Slightly fractured English ?

Have you checked your own comment section recently ? These NetDevilZ write better English than half your posters !

I welcome our new almost-gramatically-unchallenged Net Overlords.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
