Packet-sniffing techie uncovers spousal infidelity

[feverfive]

i'd smash her head in with a rock and she wouldnt be getting any assests

Now that's going too far...

[ecotrojan]

Thats going a bit too far.

What, the fact thats shes banging someone else, and lied, when asked in the first instance.

I disagree

[ThePitt]

a woman who blames a bug in Firefox for exposing the flaws in her relationship with a fiance

this is just stupid.

[Miuku.]

how???

Because it breaks the law (at least in some countries) - email has been given here the same protection as normal mail, if you read another persons email without their consent you're committing a felony, especially if you're using a tool such as a packet sniffer. (Disruption or eavesdropping telecommunication = felony).

So she could sue him and win :rofl:

[macstorm]

after 17 years she should be able to sit down with him and talk as adults and express how she feels.

who knows, you don't know her mind, maybe she likes or enjoys to treat him like that :shifty:

[ToneKnee]

To all those who quoted me and disagreed, i rephrased what i said in a later post. Its bad on both fronts, her for cheating on him, and him for spying :\

[Ferret]

Good on him :)

Thats all I can say !

[hotdog666al]

No-one's sniffing my packet.

[linsook]

i'd smash her head in with a rock and she wouldnt be getting any assests

they weren't married.

[Shadrack]

No-one's sniffing my packet.

lol :lol:

I say that if you are suspicious that your partner is cheating on you, then your relationship is probably already down the toilet.

It seems like everybody is already cheating on everybody. Is cheating really so common? It is all so discouraging.

If they were on a network he can just say he administrated the network. It's not illegal to sniff packets on a network that you own, or is it? Technically her mail was his mail aswell, as long as she downloads it. I don't think he went too far, but I don't think packet sniffing is the way to go in finding out if your wife or husband cheats on you. What's worst; Cheating or reading someone's mail over your network?
