It seems Fairfax don't have any qualms about hosting content on their site that hasn't been through seven levels of subediting… I guess either you go all-out with blog comments (a la the Grauniad's Comment Is Free) or you don't bother.

Hence, on a "Mashup" (stupid co-opting of a term there!) post about privacy and Google Maps, we get this informed opinion:

You privacy people are unbelievable. Its people like you that are ruining this country, this is America, dont like it then leave,Morons. If i get a photo of me running naked down to my local store, oh well.

Well, RoDog, maybe if you weren't a moron (oh, sorry, a ",Moron") you'd notice that teh intarweb doesn't reside exclusively in the USA.

Yay!

   To think RoDog and the schmeditors didn't realise it should be "You privacy people is unbelievable"…

   Fairfax doesn't seem to mind its blogs lifting unattributed photos from said intarweb neeva.

   "I'm in ur noozpaperz, stealin ur privacy"

   Nah, it was a pro-war rally, and a bit of searching round teh intarweb suggests he's <i>probably</i> for real! ;)
