I think, however, that it is useful to stomp on people that do things like what JJ did, before the FCC decides to regulate things pre-emptively. Don't think that the FCC don't know about us: I'd be rather surprised if there were no USENET sites within the FCC right now. It's better that they know now that we're willing to help them than for us to find out that they're trying trying to regulate us because of a flowering of jerks like JJ.
