Re: Port scanning legal

If you don't want strangers talking to it, get it off the net, or put up
appropriate filters.  Whether or not port scanning is legal (legal where?)
relying on laws for protection from scans is stupid.  Even if port
scanning were ilegal here, do you think it's going to stop people in the
next continent from scanning you?
