A CORRECTION

In an an answer to a comment I had said that Melinda Eubank had created a fake myspace account in order to send herself a letter purportadly from Josh Duckett threatening her. I was partly incorrect. She instead HACKED her way into his account, due, apparently, to having his account information.

However, THERE WERE myspace hacks of a similar nature as I had mentioned in that comment. The fake myspace pages were attributed to a group of people where were banned from a number of forums. discussing the case. Why those who were the victims of these fake pages were chosen, I do not know.

What IS true is that a lot of personal information was put on those pages and a lot of hurt feelings resulted.
The same pattern that is going on now.

One of the oldest traditions of on line ethics is being violated and that is of the wanton stealing of a username for nothing more than cyberbullying.

The forum and blog community of the internet is going to hell in a handbasket and nobody seems to care.
