But a HAM radio channel does indeed exclude non-HAM people. Content can only get exchanged by fellow HAM users. Shouldn't that be offensive by the same measure? I don't see the difference between these two cases, really. "I posted a really cool thing you can go see up on website X!" "Excuse me, but I *chose* not to be a member of website X. You should be ashamed of yourself for putting it there!" I guess I find this to be a ridiculous argument. Why did I join CompuServe back in 1986? I wanted access to the M100SIG. Plus, I even had to pay for it. Now, should the people who uploaded things into the M100SIG have been ashamed of themselves because it was only available to CompuServe members?
