Choate misunderstands journalism. When writing about an appeals court decision, it's generally not appropriate to cite the ravings of Net.wackos in an obscure newsgroup or mailing list a decade ago. Choate shows again he's not merely a Net.wacko; he's a Net.loon. Heck, I didn't even cite a Harvard Law Review article specifically on this case -- wasn't necessary. It may be that Choate has said spam is trespass. But I'm not sure why anyone could care. -Declan On Wed, Dec 12, 2001 at 07:28:42AM -0600, Jim Choate wrote:
Who again has been saying for 10+ years that this sort of behaviour (incl. Open Relay scanning, which isn't covered here) is trespass? Check the archives folks...will Declan give predictive credit where credit is due? Probably not, that takes being honest...
