Hacker Says He Printed Anti-Semitic and Racist Fliers at Colleges Across U.S.
&gt; “When it was happening to black students, it was a matter of free speech,” he said. “Now that it’s happening to white, Jewish students, it’s something else. There seems to be no conflation of hate speech and free speech now.”<p>While I disagree with the calls to remove signs of our past like the ridiculous calls &quot;for the removal of President Woodrow Wilson’s name from the campus because of his racist positions&quot;, I think that Asanni York has a point that free speech is free speech. The race&#x2F;gender&#x2F;whatever of the accused should not matter.<p>I&#x27;d like to draw attention to the &quot;white only&quot; sign on a bathroom door in SUNY. Because it was a black female who did it, it was called art. Had it been a white male, it would have been called hate crime. We can clearly do better than this.<p>As far as unauthorized use of campus resources, I think the university would be better served by suing AT&amp;T for failing to adequately protect its network.<p>&gt; Mr. Auernheimer said he did not hack into the printers, but activated them using remote access.<p>Or maybe universities and organizations could teach their employees to handle network security better. I don&#x27;t think this is grounds for a criminal case.<p>Oh, on what I hope is an unrelated note we should use this opportunity to voice our dissent against the CFAA and judicial reform especially when it comes to selectively overzealous prosecution.
