The problem wasn't so much what he was watching...

...as this story recounting the arrest of a laptopper at a public library in Loudoun County, Virginia explains. Rather, it was what he was (alleged to have been) doing while he was watching it.

Of course, the reporter states flatly that he was using the library's Wi-Fi at the end of the piece without so much as a shred of documentation to support either that claim or the obvious inference that the suspect pulled the offensive materials down over the connection. Hmmm...I didn't read in there anything about a forensic analysis of the computer having been done yet to show the stuff wasn't on the hard drive beforehand, did you?

In fairness to our intrepid correspondent above, however, I slipped over to the library's website to check out the available information on the nature of the connection and yes, it's unfiltered. So draw your own conclusion.
