How many other people on this mailing list bought a copy of the Cryptome archive, saw the logs, and kept their mouths shut because they knew damned well that they'd be causing the exact same shitstorm (with the same lack of anything being done about it) if they said anything?

To be sure, sometimes I have too much faith* in people and not enough foresight.

*Faith re: my expectations, not necessarily their righteousness or any judgment on others

Regardless of how many people saw it and didn't report it, I think everyone can agree that we all wish this had worked out more quietly and with less friction.
