We were informed that the parody Steve Jobs twitter account, was shut down: http://www.cultofmac.com/apple-takes-action-against-parody-steve-jobs-twitter-account-exclusive/75728 and it was reported that impersonation, is a crime punishable under law, by up to $1000, and/or 1 year jail.
In medieval times, it was said that the punishment had to suit the crime. Makes sense, doesn't it? that is, if you stole from somebody, you would have your hand chopped off. conversely, if you raped somebody, you would have your... Erm, nevermind.
So in all due sense, why punish @CEOstevejobs by fining him $1000/1 year jail term? what about fitting the punishment to the crime? Of course you won't make a serial child molester/kiddy porn director do community service in childcare centres, so why would you fine @CEOstevejobs for impersonating Steve Jobs? Our team at @therealfakeNTU has devised appropriate punishments for fake twitter accounts:
1) @ceostevejobs: suspension of the rights to use and own a mac computer, and to use a 688Ghz computer, running Windows 95, surfing the net with a netscape explorer, coupled together with AIM messenger on a 56K dial-up. That will teach you not to poke fun at Apple, will you?
2) @PAPLightning (pls see: http://twitter.com/PAPLightning) : Erm, what else can we say, other than detention under ISA without trial. (which actually reminds me, @PAPLightning hasn't been tweeting since august, 2010. hmmmmmm.)
3) @Lord_Voldemort7: Avada Kedavra (See: http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Unforgivable_Curses)
4) @Queen_UK: If the account owner is a Liverpool fan, to watch all Liverpool matches of the 2010/2011 season till date, in slow motion. (especially the losing matches, PLENTY).
If he/she is a non-Liverpool fan, repeat the above punishment as well. He'll/she'll be tickled pink by Liverpool to the brink of death.
Coming in Summer: Corporate takeover.
5)smrtCEO: What else could we say? Dim Sum Dollies jingles on repeat mode. Face the creations of your creator.
6) SingtelCSO69 and @singtelPR: to force them to record: "Your call is important to us, please hold the line for the next available customer service officer", for Singtel's customer service hotline, over and over and over again.
7) @StarhubCares: yes, you are genuine. But starhub still sucks. go Avada Kedavra yourself as well. (See above, @Lord_voldemort7)
8) @Jesus_M_Christ and @Jesus: tied and bondaged, punished with canings and whippings, Japanese AV SM style. ahhhhhh. (NOTE NO IMAGE FOR THIS. GO GOOGLE YOURSELF :D )
9) ah, for our friend, @fakeNTU: how about detention in the Chinese Library, together with students from the middle kingdom?
What about for @fakeMOE, @realFASS and the rest? What do you all think? Let us know!
