The world's most evil entrepreneur?

Re: The world's most evil entrepreneur?
#22I propose a test for this guy. Let's plant some live mines in a large field, and simply ask him to cross it a few times, using his little tech wonder detector. I'll bet all my possessions that he will promptly refuse, on some 'atmospheric impossibility' or some other shit.
I was thinking more of a Schrodinger's cat like scenario. Lock him in a room with 10 bombs. Give him his device and tell him that 9 are filled with c4 and one with spaghetti noodles, well cooked. He will be released when he chooses the fake and presses the detonate button. (In reality, all will be filled with tasty pasta.)
How long will it take him to emerge?

I would say this guy qualifies as a hacker. And a damn successful one.

#24How can we have a problem with this guy but are happy for "psychics" to play havoc with people's emotions in exchange for cash? It's the same thing. The response has interesting echos to the US government's response to being hacked. It's the hackers fault! Not the fault of our security! The fact remains as a purchaser you should be cautious about what you choose to buy. To blow millions on this guys stuff is utterly…
Who here is happy about "psychics" taking people's money? Certainly not me.

#25No, I'd think the guys into sex slavery and organ theft are probably more "evil". This guy is more like an opportunistic sociopath. That seems more like the norm with this war...
and probably the guys selling the bombs his device doesn't detect are more evil, too. although it might be more difficult to blame it on one person in that case.
A lot of those bombs are hacked together by the user himself.

I suspect if there was no government intervention, "invisible hands" would take care of this guy soon enough.
