2 years ago an unidentified hacker (now known as Mortland) caused over $16,000 thousand dollars in damage and financle loss to Sonic Team, developers to the hit video game Phantasy Star Online. The attack was web based and downed the developer’s server for 3 days. It was later discovered that it was in retaliation to a disagreement between the company and Mortland pertaining to the recognition of September 11th victims. “It was when the company said, “Were not in the business of grieving and making holidays” that I decided to down there servers” said 17 year old Mortland in a statement to a local newspaper on September 11th 2002.

Now at 19 and finishing up his schooling in Boise Idaho from studying Nursing, he has decided to enjoy the finer things in life. “I was always hating everyone, I was sick of everyone. But now I have simply decided to ignore them all and divorce my self from the human race. It worked out really well.”

From PR Web

Mortland should fire his publicist.

Shenanigans.

So they refused to acknowledge the anniversary of September 11 on their company sites or game servers, and so he decided to take them down himself?

[Alex Anderson]

Surely someone has noticed he's planning to become a nurse despite having "divorced the human race."

 

[TekunoRobby]

He is obviously going to be a Nurse of the UNDERWORLD.

 

[Alex Anderson]

And you just know the guy himself wrote it.
