Topic: Bill Waggoner

[Hitech Lolife]

Anyone hear this guy go ballistic and accuse a called asking 'how to protect her kids on the net' of being a hacker and refusing to talk to her? lol

     Yeah.  The guy was in a panic.  Bit of an oddball in general.

The guy was a complete moron.

Only Noory knew less about computers and spamming than this character. He calls himself a spammer in the title of his book and, in the next breath, denies it.

Every spammer, scammer. phisher and, apparently anyone who doesn't like the guy is a 'hacker', and it seems almost everyone in the world is out to kill him.

A complete waste of two hours.

It was almost a new low for the Nooron himself.  The cheese on the cracker was when George ended the "interview" with his perennially hollow accolade, "fascinating".

wow.  i'm going to have to check out this show.  sounds like a hoot.  welcome to the forums.

The premise of the show attracted me to it. Too bad this guy is completely whacked out of his head.
HiTech Lolife, I tuned in around the time he got the call from the woman, and shrieked at her for stalking him. I couldn't see the connection...I mean, she didn't even sound like she knew who the hell he was. It was some normal sounding woman asking a normal question.

I was working early mornings that week and tuned in at the exact moment they put that woman on the air. She sounded normal to me. I went back the next day and listened to the entire interview. I mentioned in another thread that I was really looking forward to this show as internet safety is a topic that I am interested in. I was hoping that this Bill Waggoner guy (who I had never heard of) was going to be a credible guest on the topic... I want that two hours back.

It made me wonder if a bill collector finally tracked him down.  It was a little over the top with paranoia.
