Cascading Style Sheet Is So Very Hazardous To Your Privacy
Radium
others on the internet to see your monitor and files. It allows them to
copy images on your monitor to their computers. It also allows them to
copy files from your computer to their computers. It is dangerous.
Avoid at all costs.
CSS isn't stored in the victim's computer. Instead it is stored in the
perpetrator's computer. What it does is it reads everything on the
victim's screen and checks on the victim's visited web pages and can
even read text from any text or word application being used by the
victim. CSS is not a security risk and does not trick the victim's
computer into sending info to the perpetrator. However, this is an
extreme invasion of the victim's privacy. The victim has no idea that
he/she is being violated. The assailant can read text and see any
pictures that happen to be on the victim's monitor without actually
accessing the victim's computer.
Your computer may not be at all damaged or touched. However, your
confidential information can easily be read by the attacker and anyone
the attacker gives it to. You don't have to download anything, visit
any website, or even use a browser to be attacked. You just need to be
connected to the internet and the attacker can strike you.
Once again, the victim's computer does not store any part of CSS. All
info and software is stored in the assailant's computer.

You should only use solvents in a well ventilated area.

I've been reading this troll in a number of newsgroups. Please, go back to
the community college and pay attention in your Computers 101 class.

No more so than HTML, or jpeg... or why not throw in Flash too.
Wait...! Therre'd be no WWW left. Oh well, back to blackboards and
chalk I guess.
BTW - care to cite your source? Because frankly... your post is 100%
wrong.

"email this page" is not done with CSS. It is done by an HTML mailto
and the browser hands it to the default email program or by server
side code
