What they did at the time would still have definitely been illegal. Probably not any more illegal than it is now. I doubt they'd be prosecuted, but breaking into any system is illegal.
- itslennysfault 10y agoI'd just be afraid I'd have rotten luck and wind up on the wrong person's computer (government, big business, etc) because they happened to be part of a bot net. (I'm not ready to move to Moscow quite yet)
- iopq 10y ago> I'm not ready to move to Moscow quite yet Me neither, it's damn expensive
- SEJeff 10y agoWell I'm sure they'll let you vacation for free... In the Siberian Gulags :)
- ambivalence 10y agoWatch out. You laugh at this as if it's some Marvel Universe pop culture thing. In fact, some of the readers here have families that were sent to Siberia during or shortly after WW2. You wouldn't joke about concentration camps. I hope.
- nicolas_t 10y agoYes, this needs to be said. I've read stories about Siberian Gulags and they are really not something to joke about.
- siculars 10y agoMy grandfather. 1936.
- SEJeff 10y agoUggg sorry if I offended anyone.
- justin66 10y agoPeople are being overly sensitive. Don't worry about it.
- reitanqild 10y agoI don't think he was offended, just pointed out that it happened. That said I found the original joke quite un-amusing and I think it didn't add much
- fennecfoxen 10y agoTechnically, my grandmother went to a camp that was west of proper Siberia. (Something about being family of a war hero in what they called the Polish-Bolshevik war.)
- aquadrop 10y agoHitting people in the face is illegal; hitting people in the face in self-defense is legal. So... It would be interesting court case :)
- pavel_lishin 10y agoFollowing them back to their house, picking the lock on their door, walking into their bedroom and hitting them in their face is not legal.
