I also don't know if it's fair to say that we have multiple examples of organizations abusing power without clarifying if you mean in our community. As I said earlier I can see these rules as being protective. Similar to how organizations have lots of rules about getting gifts from suppliers, customers, etc. and a variety of other 'conflict of interest' situations. Much of that is useful to avoid the appearance of impropriety. Simple rules can keep you out of some bad situations. Is that valuable at all within our community? Is that valuable to protect our community from outside forces? -- David
