Simple. I choose whom to invite to my parties. Gilmore provides an open door.

Isn't choosing who to invite to your parties, or to invite on your mailing list, an act of private censorship? "Freedom" Knights, indeed. -Declan On Thu, 14 Nov 1996, Dave Hayes wrote:

Providing an open door does not mean that it is always open to everyone, Dave. It only means that it is open to all by default, but that policy can be reversed for certain individuals. That is not to say that I agree with Gilmore's the decision to kick Vulis out from cypherpunks, but John's decision was neither dishonorable nor he was acting outside his powers, in my opinion. - Igor.
