Wired News: Orrin Hatch: Software Pirate?
by Dementia at 9:59 am EDT, Jun 20, 2003

] Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) suggested Tuesday that people
] who download copyright materials from the Internet should
] have their computers automatically destroyed.
]
] But Hatch himself is using unlicensed software on his
] official website, which presumably would qualify his
] computer to be smoked by the system he proposes.
]
] The senator's site makes extensive use of a JavaScript
] menu system developed by Milonic Solutions, a software
] company based in the United Kingdom. The
] copyright-protected code has not been licensed for use on
] Hatch's website.
]
] "It's an unlicensed copy," said Andy Woolley, who runs
] Milonic. "It's very unfortunate for him because of those
] comments he made."

Ha! Ha! Ha!
