Posting the occasional quote on a website is not the same as conducting detailed statistical analysis on the activities of potentially hundreds of users. There's no need to sue, your bot will just be banned for violating privacy considerations. That way, your bot can reside in #some_devoid_channel and log as much as it desires, and the rest of us won't need to worry about receiving any more "enlargement" email than we already get on a daily basis. -- Anthony Gorecki Ectro-Linux Foundation
