I've always been fascinated by Hackers. They're as elusive as a secret society and powered by a technological genius that some of us can't even begin to imagine. Of course, the media has stereotyped these types of people for us as debonair vigilantes. But we all know that the reality is a little more of a let down than all that and yet we still find ourselves intrigued by this race of superhuman meddlers and thieves.
One meddler has recently been causing quite a stir in Russia. He wanted to test his skills, sort of a refining test, but be assured that there was certainly no refinement in his little stint. A video screen broadcasting to people below on the main road, south of the Kremlin, were in for a surprise when a two minute video clip was aired illegally. A porno clip to be a little more specific.
I'm not a prude and when I first heard of this story, I allowed myself a chuckle because what harm can it be possibly cause right? However after reading a little further, I was shocked to discover that an elderly man driving at the time of clip got such a fright that he had a heart attack. It's no longer funny when someone gets hurt. Yes it's juvenile and we can have a a chuckle about it but this is what happens when a prank goes a little too far. I'm quite sure the hacker didn't realize that was going to happen but sometimes, only sometimes, it really is best to follow the rules.
