Stephen M. Hackett on Forkbombr.net

Weintraub first contacted me last November when I named his writer Mark Gurman — who is a teenager, it turns out — as “Moron of the Week” when he posted a story that Apple had opened a Twitter account. There were several signs that this simply wasn’t true. The Apple logo wasn’t correctly proportioned being the biggest. And the account was claiming that the company was giving away iPads.Clearly — to me, at least — Gurman’s post was rushed and not thought through. However, at Weintraub’s request, I redacted my post. I figured I’d give the kid the benefit of the doubt…I thought that was that. Then, two weeks later, I noticed that forkbombr.com was re-directing to 9to5Mac. According to the whois information, the domain was registered by Weintraub two days after my open letter was published.Seriously? Why are you trying to piss the guy off who owns the domain you’d like? […] How about stop being a douche and I won’t re-up for a decade.

These are a few paragraphs I chose from Stephen’s story. So many things come to mind that could be said, but jackassery sums it up pretty well.
