This cunt
[quote name="Mysterio"][quote] anonnon 13 hours ago | parent | prev | next [–] https://www.newsweek.com/clifford-stoll-why-web-wont-be-nirv... > Visionaries see a future of telecommuting workers, interactive libraries and multimedia classrooms. They speak of electronic town meetings and virtual communities. Commerce and business will shift from offices and malls to networks and modems. And the freedom of digital networks will make government more democratic. > Baloney. Do our computer pundits lack all common sense? The truth is no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network will change the way government works. Topkek. Stoll always struck me as nothing more than an opportunist with little actual technical acumen who happened to be in the right place (a university computer lab) at the right time (dark ages of computer security, and the last decade of the cold war). At best he was a siren, being one of the first to sound the alarm about the importance of security, but he could hardly do anything to actually prevent the unauthorized accesses he dramatized, and I wonder if he even would have discovered them had his adversaries cared more. [/quote] Wow, what a cunt. Stoll writes a fun book, is nice to everyone he's ever interacted with in his life and there's still some miserable wretch that can't BELIEEEEEEEVE it. And the way the worthless admin over there has things, if you tell this guy what a deplorable cunt he is, you're the one that gets banned. <i>TOPKEK!!!!!!!</i> [/quote]
