`OK. I will give you another allegation; that you have unlawfully
accessed computer systems in Australia and the United States. In the
US, you specifically targeted military computer systems. Do you
understand that allegation?'
`I understand that. I wouldn't like to comment on it.' No, sir. No
way.
Day tried a new tack. `I will further allege that you did work with a
person known as Mendax.'
What on earth was Day talking about? Anthrax had heard of Mendax, but
they had never worked together. He thought the cops must not have very
good informants.
`No. That is not true. I know no-one of that name.' Not strictly true,
but true enough.
`Well, if he was to turn around to me and say that you were doing all
this hacking, he would be lying, would he?'
Oh wonderful. Some other hacker was crapping on to the cops with lies
about how he and Anthrax had worked together. That was exactly why
Anthrax didn't work in a group. He had plenty of real allegations to
fend off. He didn't need imaginary ones too.
`Most certainly would. Unless he goes by some other name, I know
no-one by that name, Mendax.' Kill that off quick.
In fact Mendax had not ratted on Anthrax at all.
