Actually in a sense you're right. Any human demonstrating this kind of warped irrational thinking has to need some rehab. But sorry since he chose to exhibit this behavior he needs to pay for it himself.

Man Sues IBM Over Adult Chat Room Firing

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) - A man who was fired by International Business Machines Corp. for visiting an adult chat room during the workday is suing the company for $5 million, claiming he is an Internet addict who deserves treatment and sympathy rather than dismissal.

James Pacenza, 58, of upstate Montgomery, says he visits chat rooms as treatment for traumatic stress incurred in 1969 when he saw his best friend killed during an Army patrol in Vietnam.

In papers filed in federal court in White Plains, Pacenza said the stress caused him to become "a sex addict, and with the development of the Internet, an Internet addict." He claimed protection under the American with Disabilities Act.
