Going to grab some popcorn, this might get pretty entertaining...



Interesting link. I'm sure there's a lot more to come if what they have is true. But the comment about the popcorn doesn't seem right. Is it entertaining to watch him get dox'ed? Shall we encourage hackers holding info for ransom?


"Is it entertaining to watch him get dox'ed?"

uh... yes, of course it is?

I'm not saying it is necessarily a good thing, especially for him personally, but it is undeniably interesting.

Why is Jack the Ripper still making headlines? Because the unknown breeds mystery, which is inherently entertaining to people.


Apparently we know who Jack the ripper is now. http://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/was-it-aaron-kos...

He is Aaron Kosminski according to DNA probably.


Will be vetted after his book has sold out. :)
