Cycling, Chess and IP Addresses

Have been personally lambasted in court pleadings by former women's
chess champion Susan Polgar and her supporters on Usenet for having
raised the issue of drugs in professional cycling, noting how many of
Lance Armstrong's former teammates have gone down for drug use, there is
an article in today's NY Times reporting that an arrest warrant has been
issued against Floyd Landis, the dethroned 2006 Tour de France winner.
The arrest is for computer hacking of the French National drug testing
laboratory for the purpose of tampering with data to make it look as
though the lab was sloppy and unreliable. They caught the hackers
because a Trojan infecting the labs computers was placed there from the
IP address of Landis' trainer and major defender Arnie Baker. Polgar's
husband, Paul Truong, was identified the same way as the author of
thousands of obscene posting to Usenet using the names of other living
chess personalities. Them there IP addresses don't lie.

Those chess related cases were settled last month with Polgar and
husband agreeing not to contest their removal from the other USCF for
cause and agreeing to never again in their lives to seek or accept any
leadership positions with the USCF(chess).

If the French can't tell Arnie Baker from Flandis then jesus
****ing christ are they stupid. They aren't that hard to tell
apart, especially if you check the IP.

Prosecutors don't always charge everyone involved in a criminal matter
at the same time. In the chess cases, Polgar's webmaster was arrested
by the US Secret Service and is under indictment. Neither Polgar nor
her husband have been indicted to this point. Stay tuned. In criminal
matters, things tend to move slowly everywhere.

That said, your comment is stupid in the extreme.

OTOH, Susan Polgar and Flandis are indistinguishable.

I suspect Mr. Landis and Mr. Baker will be retaining criminal defense
attorneys here in the US. If they introduced false, manufactured
evidence in the arbitration proceeding conducted here in the US, it is
possible that they have run afoul of federal and state criminal statutes.

In the chess cases settled in Texas, we came across communications
during discovery that raised a red flag that a false affidavit may have
been submitted to the court. Courts, including arbitration panels of
the AAA, don't like it when the integrity of the proceeding is called
into question. I would expect the US Anti-doping Agency to take a hard
look at the tampering evidence with an eye to going to the authorities.

Oh Brian.

Aren't you the guy that said that the **** would hit the fan
once the Walsh book was published in English?

Aren't you the guy that mistook a gym teacher for a college
perfesser.

USADA has finished their job in this case and moved on. They
don't care about the French. Every single athlete that goes
in front of an arbitration panel lies to them. It happens all
the time. Dumbass.

You are truly a stupid one. I didn't know you spoke for USADA. Do you
also speak for WADA? The answer to your rather stupid, self-serving
questions are not really and no.

And stupid one, while I would agree that a significant number of
athletes going before arbitration panels lie, that is quite different
from computer hacking and creating false evidence which are criminal
offenses. Just ask Ms Polgar's webmaster, Gregory Alexander, who is
under indictment for 34 counts of hacking and one count of aggravated
identity theft. If he doesn't sing the right tune, he'll be in prison
for a minimum of two years.

It's the real world, Stupid, and stupid people commit crimes and get
caught.
