I did understand the differences. The main issue is that "dangerous"
material may be published anonymously without verification or indeed, any
peer review.

Keep in mind that you can easily set off people by telling them a UFO
crashed in the centre of New York, and there are actually those that would
believe it.

Just consider the kind of laymen running blogs and how they react over
anything that stirs the slightest "news".


I am with you on this one.  Take a look at the shitstorm in Pakistan
over faked wikileaks cables (0), (1) & (2).
