Default Tracker can't be real


Look, I'm new here. Not to usenet but this group. This 'Debbie' or
'Tracker' as she puts, canNOT be real. No one is that effin' stupid. The
way she keeps calling herself 'babe', and the 'Beef and the Bro's' routine,
the 11,000 page book....it reaks of a joke. I think someone is having a
large laugh. Does anyone here think that this person is genuine? If so
and it IS so, I think I'll have a rather large laugh.

She is definately a joke, and she might be joking, but she puts a LOT of
time and effort into it if she is... I think she's just a whack job that
likes the attention. She probably BELIEVES that her computer was attacked
by an anonymous group of ferret lovers.

Tracker is a non-fictional character. Have you not ever seen Todd Browning's
"Freaks"?

She started out a couple of years ago pushing prison art. She had a
link to a legit website that sold what looks like quality pictures
(paintings, photos, drawings) made by various inmates of prisons,
apparently a charity organisation. In order to not have her posts
labeled as spam, she stuck the link to the end of computer security
articles.

Unfortunately for her, the company hosting the prison art website
decided that her posts were still spam, technical articles or not, so
she had to remove the prison art link. But, encouraged by the responses
she got, she continued to publish her articles.

Her articles were originally written to appear as excerpts from a
computer security book she was writing, with more information given on a
linked webpage (in addition to the prison art link). The company
hosting the book webpage bounced her, and she used Geocities for a
while, until they too bounced her, repeatedly.

Unfortunately, what she writes (today, which is the same as a year ago),
is technical babble. She's posting into groups frequented by folks who
see her for what she is - an idiot - and argue with her over technical
details. This, unfortunately, encourages her to continue.

Her posts create a high noise to signal ratio in the technical
discussion newsgroups, and cause confusion in some newbies, who possibly
might take some of her babble seriously. These are the reasons why the
experienced posters, in the various tech groups where she spews her
drivel, see her as a bad influence, and fight her as a spammer.

I personally think she is a composite developed by prison inmates,
having a big laugh at us techies. Unfortunately for them, she can't
advertise the prison art website.

What are the first three letters in "convict"?
