Because insufficient case law exists -- some lawyers are bright enough to see "pools of liability" with software, esp. known vulnerabilities used in DDOS, etc. -- and we technologists are not a litigious bunch. What do you call someone who had a C average in law school? "Your honor." That's probably the other problem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
