Subject: RE: Tech: Think you can be anonymous on-line?
And my newsrag this morning reports a local man who will be serving 90 days in jail and 3 years supervised probation for taking his computer to a service shop for removal of a virus.

The tech reported the "child porn" he saw on the hard drive.

The article neglected to mention that he is now a "registered sex offender" whose name will be permanently displayed in the listings on the web and in other published lists, he will be required to confirm his place of residence with local police at least every six months, and will be required to inform the sentencing court within 10 days of any change in residence for the rest of his life.
