Kids are the same everywhere

Post by Moonwynd »

Apparently a program that donates laptops to Nigerian kids to promote learning has gone awry...

I can't believe the people who run this program did not see the potential for this happening...

What's wrong with the kids browsing porn in Nigeria? Isn't everyone naked over there anyway? They may get confused when they see perky breasts though.

I'm all for sex education, but I hardly think that unfiltered access to pornography is going to teach them anything useful.

We should encourage this among children in countries that engage in female genital mutilation. If they're exposed to our pornography, they may become less attracted to a woman whose had everything downstairs renovated.

I figured they would be using them for the Nigerian Scams. Probably got to work up to that though.

A while back I heard something on NPR about scambaiting so I looked into it on the intarweb. I came across a website called 419eater.com where people (scambaiters) go out of their way to play mean tricks on the scammers in hopes that wasting their time will keep them from stealing other people's money. Some of the stuff on that site is pretty hilarious, but this is the funniest thing I've seen in a while: Arnie vs. Scammer
