They didn't have laws related to the kind of hacking I did in the 80's. But, this is all past tense now. Have you ever heard of a packet sniffer or packet analyzer? Never mind, you are all mouth anyway. You attempt to maintain the center of attention on every thread. Don't worry, your security and privacy is not being jeopardized. No one is interested in your information. Some information on the Internet is public and only of interest to those that enjoy looking at the data flow, not necessarily the graphics of a website. SO, no one is bluffing. Making a statement only counts as a bluff if one is gambling or threatening. I don't gamble and I am not threatening. If you need confirmation of my very general comment on the IT aspect of communication, I am sure there are others on here with as much experience or more than myself. I doubt anyone wishes to expound on an off topic subject though. SO, could I be spinning a yarn or am I legit? Does it matter?
