Early nomination for “Cnut of the Week”

Stilgher­rian takes weekly nom­in­a­tions for “Cnut of the Week”. Tra­di­tion­ally the gong goes to Stephen Con­roy, for his increas­ingly futile attempts to hold back the (largely ima­gin­ary) tide of pae­do­philes sweep­ing over the internet.

Unfor­tu­nately I believe this week’s spot has already been claimed. How­ever, I’d like to make an early nom­in­a­tion for next week.

Steve Turner, assist­ant sec­ret­ary of the Pub­lic Ser­vice Asso­ci­ation of NSW, said … the blame did not lie solely with the Gov­ern­ment as “any com­puter sys­tem can be hacked … even Amer­ican defence force computers”.

[update 12/2/2009] Nope, there hadn’t been a Stilgher­rian Live for a while. There is now though, so con­sider this a nomination[/update]
