I couldn't resist commenting on this one......
Every now and then, someone f*cks up, and either due to their own will, or by mistake, becomes a troll (myself included here),
people tend to ignore this.
Yet, every once in a while, someone will reply a few weeks later, and continue a thread that was forgotten, now do these people by default become trolls trolling for trolls, or should we all learn to get a grip?
This mail in it's self reiterates the point I was trying to make.
Sorry if I offended anyone, just curious to be honest?

You're being myopic.

In some countries, this type of discussion will get you in a lot of
hot water.  Remember the flap in Fwee Fwance over Yahoo auctioning
Nazi paraphernalia, and how the Fwench Gov't was successful in getting
Yahoo to block the auctions in the ENTIRE COUNTRY of Fwee Fwance?

Think the hosters of full-disclosure won't drop the list like a hot
potato under similar pressure?

Perhaps, but then someone else would pick it up.

The fact is you can't stop idiots from being idiots, and any attempt to do so simply adds to the list of idiots.
