Press Goes Batshit Over Stealing A Password

Among all the great stories, sad ones, exciting ones and boring ones, eventually you do find yourself stumbling onto one of those batshit ones that you end up telling your friends when conversation gets dull. This is the batshit one of the week for me.

 

In Japan, a 22 year old man, ‘Ramos Angelo Miguel’ was arrested for using someone’s (his friends) PSN ID and password. Sorry, ‘SEN’ ID and password. He then proceeded to use the account without permission to download 2 films, totalling his crimes to $15.50.

 

Being arrested for that is a bit batshit, but not as crazy as it’s going to get now. The Japanese authorities not only arrested him, but put all of possessions that he used for the crime ON DISPLAY.

 

RAMOSbig

 

 

That means his laptop, his PS3 and two phones (?) are on public display. The news report video footage shows the police hauling Ramos away with dramatic zoom-in’s of him in the police car.

 

You could say that with Ramos being Filipino, this could be an overt-form of racism in the Japanese media trying to tarnish foreigners’ reputations. You don’t need to speak Japanese to hear the ‘Filipino’ uttered in the beginning of the news report.

 

Either way, it’s batshit. Or maybe people in Japan have never stolen an online account.

 

You can visit the Japanese site with video here.

 

Also; does that screenshot remind you of the opening scene in Battle Royale with the girl in the car?

Actually if he chose to commit the crime then he is also responsible for paying for the crime he committed. I have been in trouble with the law before, don't commit the crime unless you are willing to do the time for it if caught!

Umm.. I know if someone, Even my so called friend got onto my PSN and used ANY of my money he better pay up or go to jail for a few days.

My guess is this person did not pay up and the other guy called the cops. So i don't know why you think this is a "batshit story" as you call it.

With all the cyber terrorism going on in Japan you're surprised that they're now coming down hard on this crap?

It doesn't surprise me at all.

He wasn't arrested for stealing $15. He was arrested for compromising an online account. You get arrested for that in the US as well. I would also assume many other countries. Or rather, I would hope.

Also, which one is it?

"Press Goes Batshit"

"Being arrested for that is a bit batshit"

Are you calling the press or their police batshit?

Author used batshit a little too much in the article which is why he makes it confusing. For a word like that, imo, u shouldn't use it more than twice.

I went heavy on it as each time I seen the picture of a PS3 on display it's the only word I could think of.

If it was a strangers account, an arrest would of course be more than valid. A friends account? I'd say a warning and fine.

But to be put on state TV like convicted murderer and have your posessions put on public display?
That's just batshit.

So if I break into a "friends" house and steal all their stuff then I only deserve a warning and fine? If I rape a "friend"? If I put a bullet in a "friend"? You can't just make up the law as you go along. Committing a crime is committing a crime.

As for being put on TV. Was that a joke? The most dumbest shit get puts on TV these days. If anything belongs on there this is it. Here let me correct that for you:

But to put Lindsay Lohan on state TV like convicted murderer at least once a damn week?
That's just batshit crazy.

Also, it's batshit crazy or any other adjective, not just batshit :P

Breaking into a friends house and raping them is different from downloading $15 worth of movies. If you can't see that and only see Terminator vision of 'YES/NO. CRIME/NOT CRIME' then I'm worried about society.
I'm sure you can see the difference, but like me are too strong headed to give way.
As for the TV thing, thankfully we haven't seen much of Lohan lately...As for this guy, his reputation for his life could be ruined by this. A screencap of him on news being hauled away by police will tarnish his image should any mean person wish to dig up dirt on him to get him fired in the future.
He's a guilty theif, but there's no way he deserved that.

Then again, me posting it here probably isn't helping his rep either...
Fuck it, it's his fault.

PS. I want to bring just batshit back. 'Dude, you batshit'. Give it 10 years, it'll be hip.

"Breaking into a friends house and raping them is different from downloading $15 worth of movies."

I see you didn't read my other post:

"He wasn't arrested for stealing $15. He was arrested for compromising an online account. You get arrested for that in the US as well. I would also assume many other countries. Or rather, I would hope."

This has nothing to do with $15.

"thankfully we haven't seen much of Lohan lately"

Who the heck is "we"? turn on a TV, she's on every damn week.

I guess we watch different TV shows, I haven't seen her in a while.

I'll almost repeat myself instead; Breaking into a friends house and raping them or shooting them is different from using someone's online account without permission to steal $15 worth of movies.

If you still can't see the difference in compromising an online acount and raping and murdering a human being, then I give up.

Then I guess I'll repeat myself again too:

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH $15.

Also, "rape" wasn't the point. The point that you missed was THE LAW IS THE LAW. You do the CRIME you get the punishment for that crime. Period.

By your faulty logic, that makes no sense what-so-ever, anyone who runs a red light and DOES NOT hit anyone should simply be let go with no punishment. After all they did less then $15 in damage. In fact, nothing happened at all! Just give them a Mr Pham slap on the wrist.

Stick to video games, the law isn't your forte :P

Also, this article needs a massive POV in the title since it was absolutely nothing but your POV. Nothing wrong with that, mind you, just sayin.

Well it was reporting that the event happened, so it was a bit more than a PoV :P

My PoV is, however, that crime's have varying degree's and should be treated accordingly. For his crime I don't think he should have been hauled by police on TV, but that's just my view.

he did not steal his friend`s ID and password (from what i heard,the friend/complainant freely gave his PS3 ID and the password to him)but he did downloaded 2 movies without his friend`s permission.although he is a filipino,he was educated and grew up here in japan.he is a reflection of what japanese younger generation are like.japan is a fucked up society!stealin g is a crime but to oversensational ized it and treat him like your common japanese criminal is just batshit!what he did is an act of mischievousness and naiveity!and well,to the MOARGUY,look around you stupid!i wish every japanese who does stupid things when abroad will get arrested and be put on tv like what they did to him!stealing is wrong but to be aired on tv is also wrong.it will destroy his future and rep.it is just outrageous...
