I'm not even concerned with the formulas because they are so easy to distribute. I look at it this way. If you do something that has the effect of publishing an illegal document, it is liable to be reversed and undone. If I rely on your illegal act, I'm just being an idiot as far as the police are concerned, and my bitching at the courthouse will be ignored. If the police don't know which of the set of constituent parts were inserted in the act of publishing the illegal file, I'll admit it gets more interesting. They might very well suppress them all. > Besides, I don't mind reinserting my file.

Nuke any single document and, ideally, they all die. The problem is that there will be attackers who do not care, so it won't make attacks infeasible. _______________________________________________ devl mailing list devl at freenetproject.org http://hawk.freenetproject.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
