as i think dmitry attempted to state - he was not disagreeing with you or 
your idea specifically - apparently he used the opportunity to decry the 
more censorious ideas that he feels are floating around the bod...

i didn't have time to say this in my direct reply to dmitry's article so 
i'm doing so here...

when arrested, one is forced by police to cease one's illegal (or more 
precisely *questionably* legal since the police are judge and jury) 
activities.. i'm of the opinion that number one should be augmented to 
include such orders by police officers deemed necessary pending the 
outcome of criminal proceedings...

: Hyppocrasy again. Breaking system security is *ILLEGAL*. It falls under the 
: 'theft of data' section of the Criminal Code of Canada (Or some similar name 
: like that)

criminal mischief (i believe)... section 430, subsection 
1.1, 5, 5.1, and 8 pertain to data according to my sources...

: So you are saying that you will support the enforcement of these 
: laws, on our own, but not those involving theft, child pornography, copyrioght 
: infringement, murder, etc, etc. 

interesting point... we're willing to forgo legalities in some 
circumstances but not in others... 

(and totally unrelated to any of this, nfs at yonge stopped responding 
while i was composing this article - i wonder if anything will go awry 
when i post it)
