A long long time ago in an article far far away (<812@sun.soe.clarkson.edu> to be exact) dave@sun.soe.clarkson.edu (Dave Goldblatt) said:

Read, comp.risks and see if you still have the same feelings about a 
use-at-your-own-risk group.  I realize that most of the people who'd submit
to a sources/binaries group are honest, but I wouldn't bet that there
isn't someone out there who wouldn't forge an article, and post some sort
of virus program.  At least with the moderated groups, I know that
someone else is in the same boat with me, and might/will figure out that
something's wrong before I do.
