Man Jailed After Consulting Apple Genius

[gimpy1]

Amazing. An article involving a mac, and thus far, there's been no angry flame war. We are all in agreement. iPorn is good. iPorn Nano is bad.

Good. I hope he gets his in jail.

The guy might be an innocent victim in this. There are plenty of ways to get child porn on your computer without your consent. I think the verdict will spell this case.

If this guy had this stuff on his computer then Im glad he was caught (slightly disappointed the cop didnt take him out back first for a little "talk")....

 

[OwinC]

Certainly not a genius with that kind of junk on his machine.

Nonsense. No less than Apple itself extols the security of the Mac.

"pictures of naked 10- to 13-year-old girls in 'suggestive and explicit poses.'"

Is it only I that thinks this has gone way too far?

I mean, I could see something far more hardcore than that by going to the local beach in the summertime.

In fact, I'm pretty sure taking, non-nude, pictures of my friends, younger, kids and keeping them around on my computer would earn me even more jail-time then.

What I'd really like to know though is what kind of jail-time the tech is getting for violating his customers privacy, probably breaking all kinds of rules or even laws in the process, and in effect destroying his life.

The last thing we need after ridiculous laws is public support for vigilantes trying to uphold them.

He's a mac user, let him burn.

[citation][nom]Master Exon[/nom]Man, I can't believe he downloaded pictures of unclothed girls of young age who might have been abused. It is just so awful that he did this. That is quite possible the most terrible thing anyone could ever do. [/citation]
Well... Actually abusing the girls would have been somewhat worse imo.

 

[Guest]

yeah really, there are worse crimes. You are all acting like this was the worst thing that could possibly happen. At least he wasn't directly harming children, that's one thing i can think of that is worse. Get a grip on reality people.

Seems to me that people have a distorted sense of justice. Per the article, it is unclear as to how risque the photos were. I admit that it is immoral.. however.. death? I suppose that the people teenie boppers are sxting should get death too for having lewd photos of people under 18?

I'd say put him on the predators list for sure. 5+ years of jailtime would have to depend on exactly what he had on his computer and the quantity.

Clearly you don't follow the news. Cats are notorious downloading child porn.

There is nothing that has anything to do with computers in this except peripherally. Bashing macs here isn't very important, that man being arrested is, and the Genius Bar employee who got him nabbed deserves kudos. That's about it.

How the fuck? I don't even get legal porn om my computer without my consent, its not a dog who might wonder off, its a god damn machine. Your worrying me...

 

[The_Blood_Raven]

I have seen a lot of odd things one peoples computer, while being repaired, that were never this bad or illegal, atleast not in this state, but I don't think that shit downloaded itself...

Genius Bar is luckey to have an awsome employee like that. Child pornography is as low as it gets.
