Hi Martin, long time no hear!

I don't know what this guy posted, but it seems to have got up a few
people's noses!

How about having him charged with the crime of dishonest abstraction of
electricity, in making the million readers download and then delete his
message? That must have used up some electricity, and the police seem to
consider that a useful default charge in many unusual circumstances.

It is interesting you should say that. This, of course, was what they
charged phone phreakers (as I think they are now called) with in the 60's
when it involved going into a call box with a uniselector and a car
battery, and rarely led to anything more fraudulent than a chat with the
Tel Aviv assistance operator: and when, of course, it was not illegal. It
also reminds me of the fraudulent use of a law against 'making' photographs
to enhance the penalty for possession of child pornography. This sort of
conspiracy to produce the result the majority of those in the criminal
justice system want by ignoring the rule of law is a real example of
judicial corruption, IMHO. It was a dishonest charge wrt to telephones, if
only because it used less electrical energy to make a 10 minute call than
leaving the telephone off hook for hours, and I can't remember anyone being
prosecuted for that. Wasting the time of operators, and occupying valuable
circuits was not then a specific crime, though it clearly could have led to
a civil claim, but the police and judiciary decided to save the GPO the
trouble. Not a very worthy episode.

Yes. Nice place, despite all the politicians. The bus company is called
ACTION and has a web page at <http://www.action.act.gov.au/>

Unfortunately there are no trains (other than those to Sydney), so I'm
dropping the crossposting. And we weren't playing that questions game,
because it's off topic for uk.railway unless all the questions relate to
trains.

You make me feel undone,
And I'm hurt,
And if I start a commotion,
I'll only end up losing you and that's worse!
