Hello,
I am writing to you in hopes of enlisting your help to solve a problem.
On Thursday, July 01 1999, John Vranesevich published "An AntiOnline Editorial" on his site, www.antionline.com, entitled "PacketStorm Is Shut Down". <ref: http://www.antionline.com/archives/editorials/packetstorm.h tml> in which he maliciously misquoted a public statement I released that same day. His insertion of vulgar and obscene words clearly constitutes premeditated libelous and defamatory actions on his part.
Relevant excerpt from the *original* statement I released:
"Funny how I spent the past few years donating my time, literally thousands and thousands of hours, to "the security community", never asking for or making a single penny off the time and work I invested, and have now lost it all because John Vranesevich and a few of his IRC friends are able to make quick phone calls, fabricate absurd stories about criminal activity, libel, threaten to sue Harvard, and I don't even get to plead my case. I am guilty without even being informed of what was going on. He has effectively ruined years of my work, my education, my career, my life."
John Vranesevich and AntiOnline's malicious, premeditated libelous and defamatory misquotation:
"Funny how I spent the past few years donating my time, literally thousands of hours, to "the security community", never making even a penny off the time and work I invested, and have now lost it all because some asshole named John Vranesevich is able to make a quick phone call, fabricate absurd stories about criminal activity and bullshit I never did, and effectively ruin years of work, my education, my career, my life."
Vranesevich and AntiOnline have made several additional false and malicious statements and accusations, which have been published on his web site, in the "Happy Hacker" newsletter that AntiOnline distributes, and by the Boston Globe. I will formally address these issues in an appropriate manner.
Respectfully,
Ken Williams
