The quality of the any list depends on the ability of those who are
subscribed to exercise self-constraint and not engage in petty flame
wars over topics which have no easy resolution. It would also help is
people would show some responsibility to the promising start that this
list had. It's not too late. If somebody annoys you, you are under no
obligation to respond to them.

Does anybody want to talk about how fear of copyright suits is forcing
commercial website providers to dump all user accounts?
