Message-ID: <4524@ficc.uu.net> Date: 13 Jun 89 11:08:39 GMT References: <3506@looking.on.ca> Organization: Xenix Support Lines: 16 In article <3506@looking.on.ca>, brad@looking.on.ca (Brad Templeton) writes a decent response to the folks worried about the purity of their news feeds, but he still hasn't explained how he's going to avoid siccing the lawyers on the net (whatever his intent, as soon as the legal sharks smell Usenet they'll go into a feeding frenzy) when the inevitable "leaks" occur. In a private message to me he has indicated that his policy in this area constitutes his private intellectual property. I'm not quite sure what to make of that. -- Peter da Silva, Xenix Support, Ferranti International Controls Corporation. Business: uunet.uu.net!ficc!peter, peter@ficc.uu.net, +1 713 274 5180.
