Here here, I think it's all cool in some cases force is nescesary but were talking about sheer eye for an eye tactics. It's wrong, I'm no chrstian or cathoic whatever you call it. But your all asking for a world of pain, both in your jobs and in legal terms if this thing goes through, How many people are going to become half assed Hackers becuase theres a legal way to do it, how many of those under 18 script kiddies wll get a slap on the hand for doing it and told not to do it again. It won't be a big thing hacking will become a nominal thing and ... it'll muddy the whole issue. Isn't it simple enough that we can ... inform authorities, surely theres some way of doing this. Christ imagine what would have hapened if we were hacking back during the blaster worm thing.. I don't think I could have handled the work load... Eauch...
