Add EBAY and SPOTIFY and the crime rate's up 80%

From the NO SURPRISE DEPARTMENT:

Cyber crime, such as identity theft is UP. If you ad what goes on via blogs, torrents, and lovely places like EBAY and Spotify, the number of people getting away with crime is almost too much to count.

"Oh well." "Lah dee dah." "Come along, Muffin. Hello Seniormole, have some wine."

As long as Asshole Assange and the Google Nazis control the Internet and scream "FREEDOM OF SPEECH," there's no way things will get better. Internet "privacy" and bogus use of "freedom of information" means criminals easily hide and never even get much of a wrist slap. They rarely get suspended on EBAY or get kicked off line by their ISP.

Aside from money theft, and copyright theft, how about a good ol' fashioned death threat? Tell the cops, and you hear: "Oh, the INTERNET? Sorry..." If you have a letter from the bully, the cops will come to his door. But if it's an e-mail? Forget it. "The best thing you can do is shut down your account and stay off the Internet, pal."

In other world news, Kim Dotcom and his lawyers continue to stall, whine and play games in court. He recently called in sick. This is another reason why cyber crime is up. As if it's bad enough to try and get some bastard into court in the "real world." Here, you have to find the person, serve the person, the person could be in another country, "so forget it, Pal."

We all know cases where a craven crook laughed, "I'm muddying the waters, you better settle for what I choose to give you." Or, "Heh heh, I never pay, I always win. I'll keep postponing till you die. Ha ha ha. PS, if YOU don't show up it's all over. If I don't show up it's just re-scheduled. Ho ho ho!"

GOOGLE just won a case thanks to a senile judge who decided that copying everything and putting it on the GOOGLE search engine is "legal."

Oh. And a voice from Ireland regarding SPOTIFY.
