The first thing you can do, instead of bouncing the server, is to bump off the
folks who *flagrantly* flout your request to not post sensitive TLC info.
Specifically, *this* info. Personally, I'd yank Remy's posting privs

I'm not talking about stifling free speech here, just some basic CYA. If
someone wants to disseminate Lego trade secrets, they can use someone else's
server.
