What was going through their (tiny) minds when they did that?! I can't believe how selfish some people are.

Quite a stupid thing to do. Heard about it being the first physical attack over the Internet which if true is quite stunning.

I wonder what Tim Berners-Lee thinks of his invention being used like this. He won't have imagined stuff like this happening when he was working on le WWW in 1989/90.

Interestingly, this is the first forum i've seen this mentioned on where the reaction has been negative.

I must admit I had a little chortle when I first read it but then had a think about how unpleasant it must have been for the people affected and felt guilty

I am going to burn

How is affecting peoples illness funny? I find that a bit sick to be honest.
What they did is disgusting and i hope they are traced and punished for their actions. It is little different to punching someone, its an assault.

I'm definitely failing to see any funny side in that. It's scary knowing that people can think of doing that sort of thing.
