An Information Security Place

Commentary on the State of Information Security

This is what kills me. You have everyone saying that posting fights and generally screwed up stuff on MySpace and YouTube is bad (I agree), but you have a major media source (well, MSNBC USED to be a major media source) posting the most graphic parts of a video of a girl getting pummelled for everyone who doesn’t know how to use MySpace or YouTube (which is still a LOT of people).

Why must the media do this? For ratings? Come on, people. How about a little class and responsibility. This girl has suffered enough. Must you splash this all over the world via the Internet and cable / satellite?

Of course, I just posted a link to it, so I guess I am a scumbag to. But I’m just reporting the news. ;)
