Second Thoughts

I'd like to retract my initial post about the Kozinski affair. It looks like the lawyer who discovered the offensive material on the judge's website, has long held a grudge against Kozinksi. Not to mention Sanai apparently hacked into the private directory onto which the pictures were posted.

It seem the situation is a little more complicated then I initially thought. Sure, in hindsight Kozinksi's decision to not completely make sure the server was private seems idiotic and short-sighted, but I really don't think he had the same kind of malicious intent as the defendant in the trial over which the judge is presiding.

No matter how offensive I think the "humor" inherent in the pictures is, this seems like kind of a witch hunt on Sanai's part. That makes me feel a little uncomfortable.
