In the case of Keys, it's evident that he did in fact send passwords of his colleagues . . .
I guess I missed that in the article. So, did Keys actually have to "hack" to get that? If not, then I'd be curious as to why the colleague gave out his password. If the colleague gave it out willingly, then that would complicate, if not weaken, the case. Something seems fishy here.
Drinking probably wouldn't matter any more than getting a license would.
Seriously, perhaps the driver can be held responsible in some situations, probably by fiat. However, I suspect there will be many lawsuits targeting the manufacturer. Why not? It worked with ladders.
I'm approaching 70 and I don't have a problem with computers, though I suppose I'm a bit of a Luddite for preferring the command line when possible, and never having used Windows or Mac. I think the perspective on age depends on who you hang out with. None of the younger people around me know anything about computers beyond applications and most of the old farts I hang with on the net are retired computer professionals. My obviously skewed perspective is because of my current environment. I have a feeling that some of the rudeness shown towards us old folks is from people who, like me, don't get out much, but just have a different social environment. Is ignorance really about age? I don't think so.
