Bomber man threatens to blow up Bomberman dev


A 29-year-old man in Japan has been arrested for threatening to blow up Bomberman developer Hudson's offices. The publisher obviously had a sense of humor about being torn apart in a fiery blast, as the man had sent 11 terrorizing emails during a four-month period before the company finally decided to do something about it. The misguided gentleman allegedly made the bomb threats because he was unhappy with the quality of Hudson's products.

Protip: When unhappy with a company's product or service, don't threaten harm to it or yourself. Make a clear statement by using your wallet as a tool of consumer activism.
