i was under the impression if you asked to copy someone's info, they
usually said yes. if they did all the work, it seems to me it's common
courtesy to ask them first if you can use it to save the work, time, and/or
money it would take to gather the info yourself. i don't think it's a
misuse of security issue at all. just my $0.0000000000002. take care

Only because I have to.
I haven't tried your site yet, so I'm not complaining about that (though
if you
have to register just to view stuff at all, that is usually a sign for me
to
move along from a site and not look back) but there is at least one
meteorite
site that really annoys me. I don't know which one it is off the top of
my
head, but the person is so paranoid about not having some of the text
copied
from their descriptions, they did something to the site that made it stop
Windows from being able to use the clipboard while that site is open. Not
just
not copy from those pages, no other running program is able to copy or
paste
anything, either. If you have anything that you need to copy from any
program,
you have to close down any browser windows showing that web site (and when
the
problem started showing up every once in a while, it took me a while to
figure
out what was happening). THAT is what I consider an offensive use of
"security".
