Actually I can, now pay attention...
My boxers aren't in a knot. Your legal briefs are. Everytime you post here, you send an email to my email account. Dennis McCauley, oh so foolishly, set it up that way. The receipt of that email constitutes a criminal violation of the aforementioned statute, which you have now violated. Nice going, ace.
Don't blame me, blame Dennis McCauley. Jack Thompson
PS: You can avoid prosecution by posting here your full name, address, and phone number. Your choice.

"LAST WARNING FOR ALL POSTERS AT GAMEPOLITICS
47 USC 223(h)(1), subsection 113 is a new federal law which makes it a crime, punishable by two years in prison, to send anyone an e-mail, anonymously, the effect of which is to annoy,e tc. Here is the text:
"Whoever...utilizes any device or software that can be used to originate telecommunications or other types of communications that are transmitted, in whole or in part, by the Internet... without disclosing his identity and with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person...who receives the communications...shall be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than two years, or both."
Any individual who posts here anonymously is thereby sending me an email via LiveJournal to my Yahoo mail address. If the effect of the email is to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass, then you've violated this federal law. Conservatively, there have been more than 1,000 criminal violations of this statute.
Now, you pixelante thugs have two choices. You can either fully disclose your real name, address, and phone number when you post in response to my posts, thereby sending me an email with your true identities, or you can refrain from posting. Your choice, but it is a choice you had better make, because here is what is going to happpen:
If any of you knuckleheads continues to send me the kind of emails you are sending me by posting at LiveJournal, then I am coming after GamePolitics and you personally. Got that? And oh my, how some of your parents will be upset. All I have to do is serve a subpoena on GP or LiveJournal. Really simple.
Dennis McCauley is the one who has chosen to use a bizarre system that sends emails to the posters. That was his choice. It was a very, very foolish mistake. Dennis thinks he can play lawyer, but a real lawyer can read a federal statute. That is the bind that Dennis McCauley has put you all in, and I already have hundreds of your emails, all of which violate the federal law.
You post anonymously at this site at your own great peril.
You've been warned. Now we're going to see how smart you really are. We know how dumb Dennis McCauley is. He put you in this bind when he went to LiveJournal. Really, really dumb.

No, I suggest you read the federal statute
The statute makes it clear that I don't even have to receive an email. Mere posting in a chat room, like this, anonymously, the effect of which is to annoy, constitutes a federal criminal violation. You really need a pair of reading glasses and a law degree. Jack Thompson
PS: You were warned, and now you're on the list.

Dennis McCauley's Phone Number Is (private phone number) I called him yesterday, asking him to call me back at (Jacks phone number) so that I could correct an error (yet another one) in a story here at GP about me. But guess what? Dennis won't call me back. That's because he's not a real journalist, just a freelancer who is a biased video game industry jihadist.
Please contact Dennis and ask him to return his phone calls. Thanks. Jack Thompson

Do Any of You Know What a Subpoena Looks Like
Notice to All Vigilante/Pixelante/GP Posters:
I have been receiving anonymous emails from posters here, which are extremely annoying and intended to be so.
Please note that each such email violates a new federal law which prohibits the sending of such emails, anonymously.
I'm saving the emails for an attachment to a subpoena. I am able by the subpoena to find out who each of you is. Boy, will your parents be annoyed.
You all try and figure out what the nature of the lawsuit may be.
Secondly, please note that not a single one of the terms listed by LiveJournal has been violated by me. Not one. If you can read, read the Terms of Agreement.
Proof of my compliance is that LiveJournal has NEVER contacted me advising me of any terms violation. Never.
Dennis McCauley, on the other hand, hypocrite that he is, keeps TRYING to ban me from GamePolitics because he doesn't like my blowing the whistle on his being caught by a newspaper misrepresenting his relationship with it, and he doesn't like the fact that I have had way more success in harming the video game industry than he has had in defending it. See Eliot Spitzer's recent announcement, which turns on the Hot Coffee incident. Hillary is the greatest anti-gamer babe, don't you think?
Mr. McCauley's view is that freedom of experessionis for the video game industry but not for anyone else. Journalists know otherwise.
Mr. McCauley, who keeps posting stories here attacking me, even promoting a kill-jack-thompson game,really needs to grow up and learn that freedom of expression is even for people with whom he doesn't agree. Poor, Dennis. He may wake up one day with a subpoena on his lap.
Regards, Jack Thompson

"Jack Thompson thinks it's great...
That pixelantes are so self-deluded that they think a term that points out their practice of targeting those with whom they disagree for death threats, obscene e-mails, and the like is somehow a badge of honors.
 :Kind of like Nazis and Talibanis saying "Hey, look at me. I've got my Adolf Hitler underwear on!" Or "Hey, I've got my Talibani jockstrap on in this Afghan rape room."
So, party on Wayne. Party on Garths. You're so stupid that you don't even know what the terrorist epithet means. Duh.
Oh, and proof that the Thug in Chief is GP's Dennis McCauley: He allows posts here defaming me, and yet, in wonderful defense of freedom of expression, he just "banned" jack12345678 from posting this response to the above idiotic question. Wow, what a First Amendment hypocrite Dennis McCauley is.
Hey, Dennis, tell these Pixelante Thugs about the threatening letter you sent me saying I can't post at this site? Gee, looks like I can, Dennis, despite your efforts.
Oh, and Dennis, tell us all about how the St. Paul Pioneer Press ordered you to stop lying about your status as a "columnist" there. That's the real reason you've ineffectually tried to "ban" me here. You don't want the gaming community to know you are a disingenuous fraud. Jack Thompson
Hooah! Jack Thompson
