There are many reports, threads I do not read on here as well, simply because they are of no intrest. Im not going to read a detailed report of some gentooo local exploit under a,b,c conditions in x,y,z module. So I skim it, glean info if its there and dump it. One line comments... sometimes people want to acknowledge to a larger body that they agree or disagree with the thing being discussed, kinda like a YEA or NAY If all were private, the general body would not see that obvious support. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Azerail" <Azerail () supersecretninjaskills com> To: <full-disclosure () lists netsys com> Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 11:00 AM Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] Another list or this list in moderation.

I find that procmail is quite sufficent to reduce S/N ratios. I am personally amazed that computer professionals are for whatever reason not able to control the flow of data that enters their computer. Personally, I would rather the list remain unmoderated. If for whatever reason, a person doesn't wish to read what someone else has to say, not only is that your "right", it should be well within your ability. Simply put, if you don't like it, don't read it. Not a flame, just a reminder that protesting on a unmoderated list that someone is posting something you don't like is perhaps not the most expedient way of achieving peace and quiet.
