This thread title is an actual headline in a 'leading' technological news publication. I think it's great. You can see how they've mistaken 'l33t' for elite.

Quote:

Aaron Caffrey, 19, told Southwark Crown Court that he was a member of group called Allied Haxor Elite, the Daily Mirror reports.

I love that quote. He actually stood up in court and told everybody that he was part of the Allied Hax0r Elite. It's hilarious.

Again, even the 'clued up' tech rags are mis-using words like hacker, further feeding the public's stone-faced ignorance. The writers are either braindead or just trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator. They should be shot, and their eyes ground up into a special sort of food for ogres and mice.

Yeah, the public will believe he did nothing, after he admitted to being in "Allied Haxor Elite". What a fucking idiot.

He obviously wants to have recognition for being a 'hacker', which the public will crucify him for.

Ive lost alot of respect from various News sites, because they always try to play hackers out as these brilliant loners. Which is really ironic, becasue the only reason alot of them get any attention, is because they make retarded choices, and get caught.

Oh, this kid should be treated to a shotgun blast with projectile ballpoints.
He's retarded, and his mom should be put in Siberia for letting her kid become retarded.
