An 18-year-old Hungarian man was taken into custody after reporting one of the numerous bugs in the Budapest Transport Authority's site. He found the bug by using the "view source" feature of his browser. He then bought a ticket at much less than its usual price, and reported the problem to the transit authority without using the ticket.
Bleeping Computer has a translation of a message from the arrestee:
I am an 18-year-old, now middle school graduate. Perhaps that which differs from the average, is that I trust that I can help solve a mistake.
I discovered last Friday [2017-07-22] that I could take a monthly ticket for 50 for the new internet e-ticket system in BKK, and then informed them about two minutes later. I did not use the ticket, I do not even live near Budapest, I never traveled on a BKK route. My goal was just to signal the error to the BKK in order to solve it and not to use it (for example, to sell the tickets at a half price for their own benefit).
The BKK has not been able to answer me for four days, but in their press conference today they said it was a cyber attack and was reported. I found an amateur bug that could be exploited by many people - no one seriously thinks an 18-year-old kid would have played a serious security system and wanted to commit a crime by promptly telling the authorities.
I am convinced that if I do not speak about the error, I will not report it. My hire was canceled only after I sent my letter to them.
I would like to publish this post without my name and identity. I ask you to help by sharing this entry with your acquaintances so that the BKK will come to a better understanding and see if my purpose is merely a helper intention, I have not harmed or wanted to harm them in any way. I hope that in this case the BKK will consider withdrawing the report

It happens, but yeah. Azuma tells no lies when she relates the “lesbian race” thing. My understanding is that what you're suggesting is the worst kind of blasphemy before the goddess Diane possible.
(I maintain that Diane cannot possibly stand before Ishtar. I only worship the most powerful imaginary friends! #MakeIshtarGreatAgain!)
Don't worry about pre-op/post-op/no-op distinctions. A trans woman who does not physically possess a penis and went and got her plumbing redone engaging in sexual relations with a cisgendered woman is still guilty of “penis-in-vagina” sex (we have an AC around here that's most definitely not me who can elaborate on feminism's views of PIV sex) and an act of physical rape in addition to the act of metaphysical rape that a trans woman engages in by daring to have estrogen in her very own blood.
This one is in Diane's bailiwick, not Yahweh's. Sexual relations between two cisgendered women (i.e. “complete” beings) is an expression and experience of the divine, the waters that existed before the evil, incomplete being Yahweh separated the pure, feminine cosmic waters¹ predating the untrue, chauvinist account of the Creation in the Bible, introducing masculinity as original sin to all existence. It has nothing to do with family, because family is a social construction of the patriarchy intended to oppress cisgendered women for various undefined diabolical ends. Family is something that all assigned males force on cisgendered women in a fit of jealousy because they are “incomplete” beings. As usual, check with Raymond, Greer, the fictional Sarah Connor, et al, the influential minds of the feminist movement.
In fact, I've heard it argued that Yahweh proscribed homosexual relations, not to oppress homosexual men (whose relationships are the moral equivalent of any other kind of sex involving somebody assigned the male gender at birth according to feminism), but to prevent womyn-born-womyn from experiencing divine communion.
It's all very fucked up. You have to go insane to even try to understand it, which is why I'm totally insane.
tl;dr When it comes to feminist cosmology, it's $current_year, and I can't even.
¹ Whether you're a feminist or not, water is always a feminine symbol. For a completely different use of water to represent the archetypal feminine, there's the Iron John myth.

What the ever-loving shit...for the record, were I single, I would date a transwoman post-surgery/post-transition. They were always women on the inside, and if they go through the effort to bring their body in line with their mind, I have no problem with it.
The rest of that is batshit insane. I am going to ask you again: will you *please* stop tarring the entire feminist movement with the ratshit-nuts brush? You're doing the equivalent of saying that since the FLDS church is a bunch of pedophile ploygamist nuts, every Jew, Christian, and Muslims is therefore a pedophile polygamist nut. You're talking about a tiny, loud minority. We've discussed this before.

Yes, we have discussed this. I simply think you and others are mistaken about whether or not there is such a thing as a “TERF.” I've run into plenty more feminists who think you're full of it.
Batshit insane or no, that is what all kinds of feminists I have encountered, some who have even held positions of authority over me, really believe.
I readily accept that Azuma Hazuki does not believe those batshit things, but there are a lot of feminists who do and disagree with you.

Addendum: I will definitely agree that good sex between women is an expression of the divine :D ...but, really, good sex between ANY people who love one another deeply is. It lets you lose your ego and melt into your lover, and in that state you become something better than your base self. It's a glimpse of transcendence, though the orgasms don't hurt!
