FASherman, I greatly respect your point on this privacy issue :up:

I do not know about the legality and the various international laws, but I think it is at least the ethical thing for admins to do, to let members know in advance that they should not assume privacy when using the Private Messages system, if the admins intend to read them.

At the same time, I think Floris's wish to discuss this elsewhere should be respected. Not because privacy is not a big issue, but because hack threads are for the support of that hack.

The thread split was right on target, and don't let that offend you and stop you from participating in this important discussion

There are a lot of legal issues surrounding various aspect of online forums, and most of us can't afford to pay enough to cover our bases.
