More justification, since the act of sending out indiscriminate faxes is not 
intended to injure, but the "revenge" is.  Also the "revenge" doesn't affect 
the person who sent the fax in the majority of cases - a fax sales company 
sent the faxes out, but the return fax number will be the service rep.  
Sending "revenge" faxes in the middle of the night to a home office rarely 
has the desired effect - the person owning the home office is woken by the 
fax, gets up to go to the washroom, checks to see who the *** sent a fax at 
3AM, sees the black pages coming through and stops the transmission before 
any harm was done, and goes back to bed congratulating herself on being on 
the ball.
