Breaking the Law with Craigslist
Posted on Thursday, September 10, 2009 by Ian Drake
Before Yahoo! froze my account for thoughtfully answering questions on Yahoo! Answers, I saw a lot of questions asking about harassment. There were those getting harassed who wanted to know what to do and those doing the harassment who wanted to know if they're going to get caught (typically after they posted the ad!).
I would always explain to the idiots doing the harassment how they would get caught, with exact technical details, and left them thinking the next knock on their door would be the police. I like the thought of these losers living in fear, but I knew most police don't have the resources to pursue internet related cases.
However, in Missouri, there is a new law on the books and it looks like the police have it figured out. This lady got caught and I hope they throw the book at her.
