I do not get your point, petral. I know it is easy to stole info on DVD, and many are doing that. These 'hawkers' have nothing much to lose. But tachyon and Ovid are concerned about our online community -- PerlMonks -- and we all have enough to lose.
What will happen if some company decided to sue PerlMonks on some issue? Who will pay the bill?
Unfortunatelly, it is known tactics from big companies in USA to sue critics, and it works. And we want to avoid it.

To make errors is human. But to make million errors per second, you need a computer.
