This is down right ridiculous!

Trapped in a pop-up haze.

Read the above article and you'll know why!

It is highly preposterous to know that some people choose to remain ignorant in today's world. Even when specialists belonging to the field come forward to testify!

Anyone who uses the Internet fairly regularly has, on more than one occasion, had the unfortunate opportunity to be bothered by the innumerable 
popups. 
Even more so on a machine that is NOT guarded by a firewall!!

And in this case the institution DID NOT have a firewall (because apparently they hadn't paid the bill!!). And it all started with two kids visiting a harmless hairstyle site and were redirected to the  porn sites and the pop-up shower followed. And so the teacher (who was not even present there) was to be blamed!

Ofcourse the teacher could have switched off the comp .. but while panicking she didn't.
But does a 40 yrs in jail for this supposed "offence" sound fair enough??
Jeez .. they can't even prove whether it was a deliberate mouse-click or a mere redirection to the porn site!! And they claim to be law makers who provide justice!!

I say .. innocent until proven guilty!! And shame on that ignorant sect of body of law!
