Bin Badder
by Pete Hindle

Bin Badder takes the form of one of those annoying you-must-click-through programs, and is a political statement regarding the resurgence of terrorist activities in the west. I make no excuses for using a stupid scripting language for a minority platform - here, the political message directly mirrors the method of distribution. Because such a outré political message is unlikely to be received without knee-jerk response, and only a minority would ever consider the proposed link seriously. Therefore, limiting the choice of viewing to a minority makes little or no difference, as the piece is essentially didactic. And most people respond badly to being didactic-ed upon.
