Subject: Unusual request

Well, ahm, I said considered illegal by some people, I was referring to the
lines in the Cybercrime Treaty on disclosing information that CAN be used
for illegal activities. That is why I just gave an URL - allthough I believe
Paul to be an honest person, I cannot verify if his intentions are 100%
legal, nor that he sent the e-mail, nor that he is the only person reading
the mail. The treaty does not go into forums or mailinglists. The
information passed on this forum might well be used for any / some of the
offences covered by the treaty. IF any info on this forum is linked to a
specific case in court, ALL subscribers of course will be suspects. Now that
TIA is on hold, how are they ever gonna catch the bad guys posing as
security specialists? And how am I to know everybody reading this list, or
any of the one-line archives, is not a criminal?

For the legally interested.
Article 11 - Attempt and aiding or abetting

1. Each Party shall adopt such legislative and other measures as may be
necessary to establish as criminal offences under its domestic law, when
committed intentionally, aiding or abetting the commission of any of the
offences established in accordance with Articles 2 - 10 of the present
Convention with intent that such offence be committed.

see http://conventions.coe.int/Treaty/en/Treaties/Html/185.htm

Well, anyway, only two countries have ratified this treaty, Albania and
Croatia ;-).
