You mean I can't look at this:
Bummer. I guess I'll have to remove my retinas and undergo shock therapy to forget what I've seen.

There comes a point in your life when you get tired of fixing everything and wiping everyone's ass. But it’s not giving up. It’s realizing that you don’t need certain people and the bullshit and drama they bring to your life. |

I used their form to "submit" a claim against them. Used all bogus information about myself, of course. At least it takes someone to look at it and hit "delete". If they get enough, maybe they'll think again about their stupid TOS. |

But you're talking about what's in between the tags right. That I understand. I guess if you consider the entire paragraph "part of the code"... Maybe that's what I'm not understanding. Just seems to be an awfully big net they're casting. |

| I can see how some code can be copyrighted. For example, if I code a "Levine Javascript Library", then it would be copyrighted by me. I could request that anyone who used it retain a copyright notice notifying people that I made it. I might be able to go after someone who took it and tried to pass it off as their own work. However, I couldn't be able to claim that you couldn't view the source code without my permission. Especially not when the code gets loaded into the browser is such a readable form. |

Best thing to happen to their site would be for it to get
Slashdotted.
Now I'm not necessarily advocating DDoS here, even though
if that were to happen, there's a good bet their servers
would get flooded with traffic from curious visitors.
I'd also Digg this one as well.
Edit: looks like someone has posted it there as well (linked
to Techdirt): »yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=···/2123233

After looking at the page source, I can't help but wonder if they're paying the licensing fee to use hyperlinks in their code..  |

... So they're hosting copyrighted files? They must empty it automatically every day to avoid being sued themselves. Regardless someone could upload a file and send the link to others who would have a day to download it; I think the RIAA could make a case.

Haha... the DMCA Takedown JPG's are actually dirty pictures. People amuse me.
Edit: I strongly recommend you don't look through those files, specifically the JPG's. They don't look to be of age. |

I see now that this "Example Zope Program" was only discovered today, and they have no idea, at the moment, how much of a hole they have in their own system. People are posting several types of illegal materials on their site, and they deserve it.

Since they are posting their code on my computer via their website, I believe they are trying to Entrap me and I should sue them for posting code they don't want me to see.
That's like printing a Top Secret document in the news paper and stating "don't read this" as the last sentence |
