Wouldn't it be great if you could be the arresting officier, judge and jury for putting certain folks in cyber jail. Oh, the possibilities are endless... but please let the punishment fit the crime.
1. Playing a recording of the "dial-up noise" somewhat slower than usual over and over and over and over ...
2. A T1 line permanently hooked to a web site that only offers popup adds for mortgage rate discounts, hair loss remedies, male/female enlargement products and prescription drug discounts complete with dozens of annoying animated gif's.
3. Instead of the "fatal error at x01bsis1x3j39x83" message, you get a message stating that "as usual if you are caught or killed, we will disavow any knowledge of your existence" following by the actual self-destruction (flames, smoke) of your computer.
4. Abusive error messages such as, "you idiot!" or "I warned you, but you ignored me!" or "If humans are so smart, what do you need me for!" or "Because you have committed the very same error for the the 3rd time, I've decided to give you a different error message, just to keep things interesting." or the recording of HAL saying "How about a nice game of chess?"
