Perhaps a class in ethics over the next few years might show how many
users of the net were adversely affected by this worm attack, and how
doing such a thing (affecting so many people without their permission)
might be something called "unethical"?

Perhaps just using RTM (if, indeed, he was the bad guy) as an example
of what happens to a person when they lack ethics?
