While it looks like one to me, the important thing is convincing a grand jury or jury that it's true, or heading off a prosecutor who'll try to paint ftp archives as 'subversive hacker BBSs' or nonsense like that." I don't think we disagree here. "Do you know if anyone's doing this in an organized fashion?" No. I'm really just making a prediction of what the likely outcome of such cases will be. --Mike
