Leet speak is dangerous

by Marcus on November 27, 2006

I cannot believe the stupidity of this news segment. For some reason these reporters, and even a "cyber detective" from some police department, think leet speak is designed to keep parents in the dark, and that it's dangerous, but they never bother describe why. They interview some ignorant teenager and he says "All my friends use leet speak, I can see why parents would be worried, because it could lead to… danger." Wauw, now I totally get it. So what if kids are able to speak to each other without their parents knowing what it's about, and even if they want to know what it means it's not that friggin' hard to understand. Why are Americans so paranoid?

It is fucking dangerous.
It is damaging young people’s mind. IT is bad enough they write 1337, but even worse when they speak it.
Or say things like LOL…
