I detest spam and viruses. Hundreds of spam messages clog up my blog's comment software weekly. It greatly annoys me. Viruses are even worse - one of the reasons why I'm slowly and surely converting to Macs. Yet, here is maybe the first example of viruses being cool. Apparently, a video hit the net recently of ESPN anchor Erin Andrews that was taken from a peep hole in her hotel room and which shows her nude. Once the story hit, bunches of losers went surfing the net looking for the video. Instead they were surprised with a virus. Here's the story. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/us_world/2009/07/20/2009-07-20_hackers_create_links_to_naked_footage_of_espn_reporter_erin_andrews_results_in_d.html
Memo to the morons: You deserve every bit of that virus. Yes, Erin Andrews is attractive. And if she willingly posed for photos at some point in time, then she deserves to be googled. But she didn't. She had her privacy invaded unknowingly and is taking legal action to stop it. Don't encourage the dirtbags who do these things by searching for their smut. But if you do, you deserve this computer version of an STD. I find it a fitting reward.
