Hi Listers, I recently sat in a meeting that was looking into ways to deal with the sabotage of fibre optic and copper cable and was concerned by the emphasis of having new laws enacted to deal with the issue. If you went to Kenyatta National Hospital and stole the pipe that supplies oxygen to the ICU section during that then resulted in the death of a number of patients plus the deterioration of the condition of others, what would I be charged with? Would it be murder, attempted murder or theft of a gas pipe? Your response to this question will better explain why we charge those accused with vandalising data and power cables under the scrap metals act. It is my believe that the existing laws are sufficient to handle the issue and act as a deterrent, I have attached my thoughts for your input and critic. http://quadrantshift.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Internet-access-as-a-u...
