I'm not sure how effective asking criminals not to crime is going to be.
- logicallee 10y agoWhy not? Asking men not to rape reduces rape. By the way it takes considerable intelligence and engineering skill to be technically able to hold for ransom a device at a distance. I am certain that these engineers are reading this comment. I can easily consider that they did not even consider the ethical side in evaluating the list of requirements and completing them. Articles which don't call their attention to this don't help. This isn't a nuisance: it's criminal behavior that needs to be reported to the government, and never, ever paid for or encouraged. My grandparent comment got downvoted heavily but I am keeping it. If you're a programmer who is doing this, stop.

- wernercd 10y agoThat's why Chicago is so safe. because of all the laws making it harder to get guns. And why it's so hard to get drugs. Because of all the laws that say "You're a bad person if you use Weed" and put people who deal with drugs into prison for their first offense. All we need to do is expand that mindset and we'll have no hackers before we know it.
