Want To Get Famous? Mount a Guerrilla Attack on Gizmodo!

Now's your chance to get famous in the blogosphere and possibly beyond if you've been working on that one without success.

Whatever you think about Gizmodo's pranks at CES, there's a lot of attention right now on a crew who's only used to dealing with oddball programmers who got lucky, tech bloggers, bourgeois presenters and venture capitalists, know what I mean?

Somebody with a hard core approach and a keen eye for the legal details could now mount a nonviolent, legal, offline guerrilla attack on the Gizmodo crew and get a lot of attention and support.

They've removed any reason to be hands off so they're very vulnerable right now.

Just take some time to analyze the legal implications of whatever you do and take into account the possibility that Denton will sue if he's seriously embarrassed.

The people that support Gizmodo can't really say anything at that point without getting all mucked up in the details which they're currently able to skirt by laughing.

The people that are angry at Gizmodo will, at worst, shake their heads at your childish response but some of them will say, Gizmodo had it coming!

All who know will find it difficult not to write about you.

GET FAMOUS!  DISRUPT THE GIZMODO CREW!

This feels better.  Getting moralistic about pranks isn't my usual path, though I haven't fronted about any of my opinions, I'm just working through the implications at the moment.

But leveraging the positioning of other pranksters is something about which I know quite a bit.  And that too can be a community service if done correctly.
