'Criminal' Botnet Stumps for Ron Paul, Researchers Allege

If Texas congressman Ron Paul is elected president in 2008, he may be the first leader of the free world put into power with the help of a global network of hacked PCs spewing spam, according to computer-security researchers who've analyzed a recent flurry of e-mail supporting the long-shot Republican candidate. "This is clearly a criminal act in support of a campaign, which has been committed with or without their knowledge," says Gary Warner, the University of Alabama at Birmingham's director of research in computer forensics. "The question is, will we see more and more of this, or will this bring shame to the campaigns and will they make clear that this is not a form of acceptable behavior by their supporters?" Warner pointed to provisions of the federal Can-Spam Act.

This should send the Ron Paulians over the edge as they will no doubt will deny the allegations and claim them to be a plot cooked up by the Black Helicopter forces. Digg is a hotbed for the Ron Paulians.
