The Swedish viruswriters hunt is on the move ============================================ What have my sad eyes found now? Well, there's a new law coming up in a few months that will make viruswriting/spreading illegal. Ok, i under- stand the spreading, but the writing? That's what i see as a felony against the human rights, since you have rights to express yourself, say what you want to etc. in a democracy, a FREE country. But Sweden starts to (more and more) block the gates for us digital knights. Also Switzer- land has started out to follow Sweden in it's tracks.. Maybe this is a gift to the European Union (ex. EC) to get a faster membership for them who want's to, what do i know? Why should i get into jail for lets say 4-5 years and pay 500.000$ just because some stupid "wanna-be" spread my virus to a nearby policestation, and wiped out their registers? That's his problem, not mine just because i made the thing. In that case arrest every legal or illegal producer of weapons cause they can only be used to kill people with, nothing else. They thing they can stop us by the above restrictions, but then more people will start. That's because illegal things are "cool" so to speak. Below are two examples of them laws. (SWEDEN's law) Whoever creates a computer program or program instructions constructed in such a way that they are capable of affecting data or the technical equipment used to process data without having authorization to do so or spreads the aforementioned programs or instructions, and thus causes a risk of data being destroyed or altered, or causes damage to the aforementioned equipment or disturbance in its functioning, shall be judged guilty of manufacturing or spreading computer viruses, and sentenced to pay fines or to no more than two years of imprisonment. --------------------------------------------------------- Hey! Cool! It's not forbidden to HAVE viruses, just as long as you only give to them who knows what it is. I think i'll start making an lame AV-program, so i can go around collectin viruses, and then just say that i was against them all from the start and tried to get the new stuff by looking like one of them. Hahahah! What a joke! No chance that they'll bust someone, except for them who spreads the shit. Our magazine IS a virus-magazine, and we state that even before you unzip it, so that's not a felony either. :))))) Fuck them corrupted suckers! --------------------------------------------------------- (SWITZERLAND's law) "Anyone, who, without authorization - erases, modifies, or destructs electronically or similarly saved or data, or anyone who, - creates, promotes, offers, makes available, or circulates in any way means destined for unauthorized deletion, modification, or destruction of such data, will, if a complaint is filed, receive the same punishment." P.S.: same punishment =Jfine or imprisonment for a term of up to three years; in cases of a considerable dam-age, five years with prosecution ex officio --------------------------------------------------------- This is about the same as the Swedish, but not as long time in jail as in Sweden etc. --------------------------------------------------------- As Frisk said in BULL-210, these laws will make it equal to spread poison if your virus trashes anything except if it bugs. THIS IS TOTALLY INSANE! What has happened to our community? It's lower sentese to kill, run-over, sell dope etc. than a little digital prank? Our politicians are totally out of their minds as i seems. Oh, well.. If i go down, there will always be another. But i'll tell you this much, that i will NEVER do time, like 6 years in jail or something, and if anyone tries to bust me, s/he'll go down with me, and do trust me on thatone. = METAL MILITIA =
