Greene " <thomas.greene () theregister co uk> Organization: The Register Leaving a hint in the source and waiting for someone to call them on it may be a legal strategem, but it's not a good way of maintaining user trust. Only a fool would blindly depend on someone else's software to gain anonymity without examining the code. If you need anonymity, then you should easily be willing to invest sweat equity, or have a contractual arrangement when the threat is only financial. For more serious threats requiring anonymity, not reviewing the source when it is available seems beyond stupid. I could unserstand your ire if you were one of our clients, but this was a free service wasn't it? FAR
