The Post-Autistic economists attempt to hack my website!

The Post-Autistic economists are attempting to hack into my website! Is this a violation of my free speech?

They posted a screen print of software intended to hack into people's websites with my server listed as the "target."

Isn't economics supposed to be one of the few sciences that are "intellectual."

I mean, I hardly see this much profanity in the quantum gravity debate.

Wow stop whining. It was one person, not a group of people. Seriously, you need to get away from your computer more often.

I don't know if it's a violation of Free Speech, but I believe a denial of service attack is a crime. I'd give the FBI a call and see if they have a desk to deal with this issue.
