You're thinking gunsec -> hunsec.
Hopefully we won't have 600 emails a year about Germans.

The difference between g and f is only one bit.

I read in the newspaper (so it must be true) that the password was written
down and put in the envelope with the CDs.
Oops. Wrote dove instead of hawk once.

Games theory se
Games theory seems quite appropriate here.
In a population of doves, the average benefit is maximised,
but if a lone hawk appears, he reaps carnage throughout the
population and gains at the expense of the doves.
As more and more hawks appear, the liklihood of a hawk
encountering a hawk increases

I was an expert witness on this case. My guess (and its just a guess)
is that because the viruses he wrote had negligible impact they
were discounted in sentencing.
Certainly he created the viruses, but this is not a crime. Whether
he actually released them in any meaningful way is more debatable.
