there would be no terrorism.

This guy is, arguably, a domestic terrorist. Runnin' around takin' high-voltage towers apart to show America how insecure its power transmission system is. No terrorist is going to pull bolts out of a high-voltage tower; it's not showy enough and it takes too long. He's going to try a high-profile attack, like stealing an airplane and flying it into a power plant.

Same shit with computer viruses. Some guy gets busted for writing a major virus, what's the first thing out of his mouth? "I was trying to highlight the insecurity in our computer system!" Well, if you little fucks would quit exploiting the fuckin' insecurities in our computer system, the virus problem would basically go away. A real terrorist would do something showy, like bomb Microsoft (which, ironically, would increase computer security by orders of magnitude). "Oh my! The terrorists have unleashed a computer virus that has erased all the bestiality porn from my computer!" Uhh...that sounds like a good thing to me!
