[QUOTE="ThirdWizard, post: 7652658, member: 12037"] My point was mainly that anyone who would partake in internet vigilantism wouldn't stop because of an apology. The belief by the businesses that everything would just end if there's an apology ignores the reality of what the Internet is. Once it is out there, you can't pull it back in. By the same token, he pulled the youtube video, but he can never be sure it is gone for good. Someone could have saved it and it could pop up later without his approval. He'll have to live with that possibility from now on, if he realizes it. A lot of stupid kids on youtube will have to live with that. It reminds me of a guy I used to work with who was flirting with a woman at a Christmas party one year who was most assuredly not his wife . That photo got out onto the Internet. He came to us (IT department) to see if we could remove it from the Internet. No such luck there. You have to live with your mistakes, and the consequences. No questions there. If a future employer saw the kid's own youtube video, I'd say that's his own fault. I want to say thanks for listening to my concerns. :) I try to stray away from "serious" topics around here in order to keep from ruffling any feathers. I hope I've been measured and respectful in my posts. I have strong opinions on some topics and this is one of them. [/QUOTE]
