Well I think this is a good point maybe the statement should read more like
this.. (Using Larry's statement as a starting point)
"Sending unsolicited BULK e-mail using addresses obtained via any unapproved
mechanism on LUGNET is a TOS violation and may subject you to prosecution."
Then listing the "Approved mechanisms" of which I don't think there are any at
the moment.

| (...) So if someone posts something about something they built, but didn't ask for comments, and then I email them to ask how they built it, that would be a violation of the Terms, or even a crime? That doesn't sound appropriate to me. /Eric McC/ (24 years ago, 5-May-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
