Burglar Breaks In For Porn
from the strange-crimes dept
It takes all kinds, I suppose... Police in Wyoming are looking for a burglar who breaks into homes in order to use computers there to surf porn. He doesn't steal anything from the homes, but uses their computers to buy membership to porn sites, which he then surfs for a while before leaving the house. Police say the only way owners know they've been broken into is that the settings on their computers have been changed to log into porn sites. My first reaction on reading this is that some husband or teenager got caught by his wife or parents logging onto porn sites and made up this story, but if it's appearing all over the area, maybe there's something to it. You would think, though, that there would be some other evidence of how the person broke into the house.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
