And as the hacks prepare yet again to narcotize their victims comes this thoroughly dispiriting account of how the Internet can help the bad guys. It might seem odd at first but consider: the Web, though zillions of flash points, is one body, easily controlled by those with the tools. Nokia and Siemens supposedly gave the bad guys some tools (although now they say they didn't, chuckle chuckle). The cretins at Cisco Systems and G000,000,000GLE and Yahoo! helped the Chinese government silence dissidents. With every passing day the Web, for all its velvet-glove warm fuzzies, looks ever more like a worldwide iron fist.
