The Case Of The Bandwidth Burglar

For those looking for stories of connivance, perfidy and sheer desperate cunning, normally we'd refer you to detective novels and the like. But now you can find the same thing on the net, and what's more, time reading them can be billed against your budget for governance!

Over on a blog by 'SecurityMonkey' there is a story called The Case Of The Bandwidth Burglar. SecurityMonkey is some sort of Canadian literary bdsmer who makes his readers bite their nails to the third nuckle waiting for days for the next installment. But that's all over and you can read all five installments in one pleasant saturday morning now.

Be warned, moral dilemmas, unhealthy influence of caffeine, and system administrators seen thinking and working, ahead. Not for the squeamish.
