Computer Technician Secretly Spied On Customers In Their Homes While They Were Naked

Trevor Harwell

Computer technician, Trevor Harwell, has been arrested in Los Angeles, for spying on people in their homes. When customers would go to his repair company Rezitech for repairs to their computers, he would secretly install spyware that allowed him to later remotely access their laptops and PCs.

He would then secretly activate the webcams, using it to watch people, mostly women, in various states of undress and engaging in sexual activity in their homes, in deeds that are criminal violations of domestic and international law.

Harwell also installed malware that would create a fake pop up telling computer owners to take their laptops into the bathroom when they showered, as the steam would reportedly clean the sensors. It was all a lie to perversely watch women naked in the shower.

The criminal scam was uncovered when a woman took her computer to an Apple store and one of the company's technicians found the illegal software Harwell surreptitiously installed and instructed her to call the police.

Authorities opened an investigation into Harwell and later arrested him. He has been released on $50,000 bail pending trial. Police also seized from Harwell's computers "hundreds of thousands of still images and videos" he secretly took of his victims in their home, stashed on his computer. We are living in a sick world.

Police: Computer tech installed peeping software

FULLERTON, Calif.—A Southern California computer repairman suspected of installing spyware on laptops that enabled him to snap and download photographs of women showering and undressing in their homes was arrested Wednesday at his home, police said.

Police began investigating when a Fullerton resident complained about suspicious messages appearing on his daughter's computer last year. Trevor Harwell installed software that took control of computer webcams on his clients' Mac laptops, Fullerton police Sgt. Andrew Goodrich said. He was released later Wednesday after posting $50,000 bond, Goodrich said.

The software sent fake error messages telling users to "fix their internal sensor soon," and "try putting your laptop near hot steam for several minutes to clean the sensor," Goodrich said. The error message prompted some victims to take their laptops into the bathroom with them when they showered, he said.

"Once he had access, he would take photographs of the users, usually women," Goodrich said. "Often, the female victims were undressed or changing clothes. Harwell then stored the photos on a remote server, and eventually downloaded them on his own computer."...

Sony Broken By Anonymous $24 Billion Dollar Hack

Howard Stringer's arrogance and negligence, believing no one could dare touch them, came back to haunt Sony

Sony has been broken by the $24 billion dollar hack that transpired against the corporation over the past few weeks. Only to be hit by a second damaging hack last week. The public is calling for the resignation of Sony CEO, Howard Stringer, who mysteriously fell out of sight when all the turmoil and bad press hit the company. He surfaced today with his tail between his legs, issuing a belated and ineffective apology, after a scathing article slammed his cowardice and lack of backbone.

Sony stated this week, as the Judiciary Report did last week (Sony Badly Hit By $24 Billion Dollar Hack) the hacker collective Anonymous is behind the massive hack the company sustained, disabling their systems, knocking their PlayStation sites off line and stealing the personal and financial data of tens of millions of customers.

Sony stated earlier in the week that they found a file on their server that is the calling card of Anonymous. The file was not only titled "Anonymous" it read "we are legion" which is their slogan. Anonymous denied all responsibility for the hack, but why would they claim credit, as it would equal decades in prison.

Sony is facing a financial crisis from the Anonymous hack and earthquake/tsunami that could bankrupt them

Either way, Anonymous could state it was someone else pretending to be them. The FBI, who Sony called to report the hack, is not good with computers (LOL). However, regarding Sony, it's not so nice when you have to deal with the FBI as the shoe is on the other foot, now is it.

Some of you may be wondering how I knew last week Anonymous is the one that attacked the company, before Sony made the announcement yesterday, regarding the calling card they found on their server. I had nothing to do with it, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that when someone says they are going to pimp slap you in an extraordinary way, then they do, who it was that issued the slap-age. For weeks Anonymous warned Sony they were going to get them (see: hack) and their initial blow to the company was just a test (see: diversion) while they did the real damage (see: monster hack and identity theft).

Ironically, the hack does not seem to have been that difficult for Anonymous, as news has since surfaced revealing, Sony's security software was not up to date or strong. It did not meet even basic, up to date security standards. Considering lawsuits are being filed against Sony left right and center, this tidbit is going to work against them in court, as it reveals criminal negligence. Once again, I am only sympathetic to Sony's customers and not the actual company, as it has a history of abusing and robbing innocent people for financial gain.

Postal Mail Revenue Declines

There has been a noticeable decrease in postal mail being sent by consumers, which has led to layoffs of employees. The U.S. Postal Service is hemorrhaging money and employees, while the British Royal Mail is signing licensing deals to try to make up for lost revenues.

This has occurred due to advances in technology, as many letters are now being sent by email or text. People are also communicating via instant messages and social networking sites. Therefore, the decline in revenues can be attributed to this.
