The main reason we do not like hackers is that they deprive us of
resources (either by theft or denial of service).

Mailers that result in multiple copies being re-produced in ludicrous
quantities deny service (bandwidth through network, disk space on 
mailbox host (message store), user time discarding) are half as bad as
this.

What punitive measures are to be taken against sites that do not
maintain their service MHS's properly...? 

or

what's the difference between negligence and recklessness?
