This was not a mere posting of data for information purposes.
This is totally disingenuous as if you read the pice from "Anonymous"
(identity disclosed elsewhere) folks were instructed what to do with
the information.
It is too bad, you can not bring yourself to disavow that posting as
Smith has.

Re: Where are you now fluffers
This thing took on a life of it's own. I restate my position that this
attack on Justin was underhanded. No one has business saying stuff like
this. It is simply not appropriate. To say that you are annoyed with
someone is one thing, but this attack? I agree with a lot of these
posts- very bad form.

There was and continues to be ample blame for many.
I agree with Ben that this Newsgroup is here to help people.
That help should be given whether or not the answer:
:: Makes revenue for SprintPCS
:: Makes Sprint look good - or bad.
:: Makes the answerer look like a genius or not.
People of good will can disagree with the means to an end,
without cursing, calling each other names, calling one a liar,
or attempting to harrass them by notifying their boss or their
ISP.
P.S. I just checked Google, and I think you're "Anonymous".

Re: Where are you now fluffers
I realize that I should not respond to your comments, which you have a
right to. It is also the right of Justin or who ever to post whatever
he wishes, but once they do this publically, I feel he has opened
himself to whatever comes from it. All of us, including myself
occasionally make poorly thought out comments, however, if his posts
totaled the 500 or so as described, and so many were very crude, and
personally offensive. There were many calls for this to cease, all of
which were ignored, ridiculed, and worse. Although this may be the
classic case of not getting into a pissing contest with a skunk, still
yet, I think he pushed his free speech too far.
Character is what you do when you think no one is watching you, and if
someone acts like this secretly, then I would not want him for an
employee, and would appreciate someone letting me know of .
My main problem was not the content of the posts, but nuisance of those
posts jamming up the forum with so many posts that useful info was
difficult to find, and probably discouraged others from making posts.
I find these forums very useful, and have been pointed out as wrong, and
in the majority of the posts have helped me learn or understand
something. Most of his posts were just taking up space---Only my
opinion, and I don't mean to offend anyone----but have you noticed how
much the trafficker is down here in the last 24 hours.
thanks all. and especially to anoyomius

I'm not saying that the original "Justin Info" post was in good taste or
correct -- legally or otherwise. But it just sounds like someone got
tired of Justin's 50 foul-mouthed posts a day... with subject lines like
"So and So is a ****ing Moron" and "Where is Rob?" and "Where is
Tom?"... I can understand that Justin is/ws frustrated by other people
in here -- with good reason, more or less -- but 3+ days of 50+ posts
like this... someone just got tired of it.

Re: Where are you now fluffers
William, simply stated, this is the United States of America not the UK.
in this country one is afforded the right to express his or her opinon
(good or bad) without fear of procesacution as long as the statements
are factual or believed to be as such.
Public information is just that PUBLIC and if "Anonymous" cares to share
that information, again well within his rights.
As for the suggestion that persons should call or otherwise contact the
employers or family or the offender (Justin) it is simply that, a
suggestion. This would be the same as if I were to suggest that all
Americans boycott a certain company or product because of a personal
issue I have with them. It is up to the individual to decide if they
will involve themselves in the boycott.
In short pick your battles; it is not always a virtue to be on the side
of the underdog.

And you happily piled on, posting this 2 days ago before you became
"Anonymous".: Now you want to pretend otherwise?

Mr. Bray = "Anonymous"

Considering your prior 15-16 OR MORE ID changes here Phillipe to get
around the filters, your comments about trolls are pretty funny ...
considering you are the number one troll of this newsgroup.

Smith would rather not attack Mr. Anonymous,
thereby showing his true support for harrassment as a tool
to suppress anything negative against Sprint.

Not at all Phillipe ... This thread has nothing to do with a newbie
question. So, tell me Phillipe, or should I call you Sunday Auto now
as well ... , why do you reply to your prior comments with a new ID,
to back up your statements? Inquiring minds want to know ... Hell,
maybe I should notify the National Inquirer ... You must be coming up
to some sort of record of having the most multiple personalities by
now ...

Wait a minute Phillipe. You already have quoted me and had agreed with
me, when I said I didn't condone Anonymous's post.
Why do you consistently misquote other people here and just plain lie?

Yes, one is free to exhibit bad taste with no repercussions. And, no,

It does not take a special investigator to dig up posting history of
someone, only a trip to groups.google.com and do an advanced search.
dejanews.com and altavista provided this service before google brought
it online. People might not realize everything they post on usenet is
available FOREVER in searchable form. I can still to this day pull up
hundreds of usenet posts of mine from as far back as 1995. If I had
maintained the same email address in my newsreader and did not start
using the X-No-Archive header, every one of my posts for the past 8
years would all be tied together, yes, all the flames, when I posted
my phone number, where I worked, what type of car I drive, where I
live etc... Justin posted all of that information himself and it is
all searchable online, person "anonymous" simply weeded through it and
reposted it simple form. That is why so many people like myself do
not use a real email addresses in usenet, never use the same signature
line for long, and never post any meaningful personal information.
Imagine getting in a heated flame war with someone in the newsgroup
alt.sex.fetish.breastmilk and two years from now, your potential boss
searches google for the email address you sent him your resume from.
