I don't know what your standard of proof is, but the school official in
the video said that they were having a problem with network slowness
and in an attempt to figure out what was causing the slowness they
identified the boy's web page. Maybe they were mistaken, but maybe the
boy has a lot of friends and maybe the school has something less than a
T1.
My standard of proof is innocent until proven guilty (Isnt that yours?).
What's your standard of proof for "proven guilty."
My guess is someone looked at the logs and saw some hits coming from the
boys website and went and see what is on it, when they saw the blog
entry they went nut job and had him arrested.
Whats your standard of proof that he did cause the "slowness" that some
unnammed school offical said that he did?
Mine is irrelevant, but if they can show from their logs that many
thousands of hits were coming into the web server with a "reload pattern"
(repeated access to the same page from the same site) and they can show
that there were few or none of these before the boy made his web page, and
they can show that there were no other web pages on the internet making a
similar request for repeated reloads, the kid is screwed.
