Mozilla fired Brendan Eich for being targetted by the gay lobby, and there was something of a campaign against them as a result. Perhaps it worked? Or perhaps now they are going crazy without his technical leadership? (Okay, they didn't fire him, they made him walk the plank, but either way he got fed to the sharks.)
I blocked a network on the firewall the other day - it was sending some rather interesting high volume probes towards our network. It turned out to be prolexic, looking for someone to hit. They seemed like a familiar name, and I saw that not only are they abusing our servers, but they are complaining about abuse. Hm. I wonder if anyone will ever remove the block I put in?
