Hackers that break into secured computers systems as a favor are exactly like cops that break into your house just to prove how easily a criminal could do it.
How considerate of them!
Maybe they will soon offer a similar service to break into my car and spray bleach on my lawn, just to prove how easily somebody who actually meant harm could do those things.
But the fact that they are doing it as a favor, to point out what truly anti-social behavior could look like, potentially, if the perp was all mean and stuff, that is supposed to make it all better.
Right.
Yes, truly the world would be a much better place if we had more people breaking laws and invading people’s privacy and property in order to lecture all of us on how lucky we are that real criminals are not doing exactly the same thing.
Crisis averted!

When backed into a legal corner, some people hire famous attorneys and do everything they’re told.
Others might flee the country, or go underground, or even, sad to say, take their own life.
Still others appear on “The View”, with Barbara Walters and the other legal experts on that silly gabfest. Against their former attorney’s advice, of course.
See if you can guess which one our soon-to-be-former-governor chose?
UPDATE: He considered offering the Senate seat vacated by Obama … to Oprah Winfrey?
I rest my case, your honor.

You know, when you’re sitting on your veranda, and a 16 foot python comes right up and snatches away your dog, and eats it while you watch in horror, it might be time to consider moving.
But maybe that’s just me.
