"Because of outsourcing..." Up untill this point I thought he was just a bit selfish and uncaring for others, but no. Actualy he's an ignorant whinger too! Yet more proof that people can be very clever and talented in some areas, and unbelievably brain dead in others.

  Hard for *hackers* to find jobs? I should hope so. I'm a *programmer*, and never had problems finding a job.
  
  Maybe he should consider a career change with his ethics implant.
  
  Moron.

  I also am a programmer. 19 years old (so I'm in roughly the same boat as him) I have a job as a legitimate computer programmer. Somebody tell this kid to stop being such a moron and go get one too, or does he not have "legitimate" skills?

  Why do you say he is a Whinger? (I assume you meant Whiner). Because he is resourceful? Because he claims OUTSOURCING took away many of his other options to produce income?
  
  Maybe he is a whiner, or maybe he speaks the truth. I know many firms who have laid off talented US citizens to send their jobs overseas. It is even a topic in the presidential race, so obviously it is a concern.
  
  May be whining means informed?

  Pathetic maybe, but I can't help but find delightful irony in the fact that his program is so widely pirated. It's pure justice, in my eyes.
  
  (When dealing with scammers, expect to be scammed.)
  
  Do I feel sorry for him? Not really (in fact, I'm happy he was swindled, even if it was by some of the bloodsuckers out there).

  Still British, because Australia was originally a British prison colony.
  
  (Well, I say "originally" - originally it was the unspoilt home to a native population. Us Brits kinda screwed that one up, and the Australians continue to do so.)
