Ill say again, you might as well send google the same emails you are sending me since Mr. McNasty (related to mcdonald maybe?) can do the same thing with google.Listen to yourself... "It can be done over there, so it's OK for me to do it." You would appear to not have any typically adult ethical and moral reasoning capabilities. This is NOT, as you incorrectly characterized it in one of your replies, a personal attack. Just go read the (section of the) chapter in _any_ intro-Psychology text on the development of ethical and moral reasoning. Your "argument" above does not even get into the double- digit age range. Such an argument shows a severe lack of ethical reasoning ability relative to normal adults. Don't be too upset -- a small number of folk (anecdotally though, it seems to me that a disproportionate rate of these exist within CompSci and related disciplines) have such arrested ethical reasoning development, but they certainly should not be allowed to make decisions of the kind you are making in setting up your site as their arrested development prevents them from making good ethical decisions and that is clearly what is at issue here.
You'll never persuade anyone that they have poor ethics. This isn't a useful line of argument. I doubt if compsci people are, on average, less ethically developed than the average. Probably what's happening here, is that you have the opportunity to make measurements on more compsci people than baseball players. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
