    Having your place broken into and your computer stolen can be a nightmare. Getting revenge on the fucker who has your machine can be a dream come true. I had the opportunity to experience both of these when my machine was stolen in Boston and then showed up in Las Vegas 2 years later. Come share some laughs at a lamer's expense, participate in the pwnage, and learn some resulting insights into the implications of certain security decisions.

      I know your comment is about 10 years old now, but, IF you see this: I'd worry more about your parents finding out about you breaking into their Facebook accounts rather than the government finding out. ;)

    It's possible that this hacker is violating Guzman's privacy and wrongly damaging his reputation.
    Why did this hacker assume the guy holding the computer was the actual thief? He might have simply bought the computer used, either from the thief or (more likely) from someone involved in fencing stolen goods.
    Can we assume Guzman knew it's stolen? Maybe a seller on craigslist claimed to be a dealer of used computers, and told him that he would need to buy his own OS X install CDs, or just use the computer in its current state. Guzman might have been naive, and intimidated by the unfamiliar idea of an OS install, so he decided to just live with the computer as-is.
    Are we supposed to believe Guzman previously lived near Boston, or traveled all the way from Las Vegas to Boston and back? This talk makes no mention about researching the guy's past living addresses.
    I've bought used electronics before. So now I have to worry about strangers coming out of nowhere and sending cops after me? Then again, I guess any used smartphone or computer should be wiped out completely before first using it.

      I'm pretty sure if the machine is sold in a shop or somewhere it will be formatted first before being sold, seeing how the machine is pretty much untouched in term of its content, I think its pretty much clear on whoever owns it at that point is still a no gooder.

      If the individual did not know the goods were stolen, then the goods are returned to the owner and the individual is not prosecuted.@@SGHDRides
