As long as I'm not breaking into anything, there's nothing wrong/illegal with using anonmnity tools to access a public website. If you put something on the public internet for all to see, you can't complain about people trying to avoid your attempts to survail them. > What rights do you have over other people's networks and sites ? > What rights do you have to circunvect the decisions they made ? > If you don't like what the way they are doing things, go somewhere > else. No one is forcing you to stop using Tor or being anonymous. Public Internet is just that .. Public. If I can't acccess said site with method #1, I can use method #2. If site says "you're using TOR, go away", I can use $random_proxy in $random_country and accomplish the same thing. If you want to make your website private, don't put it on the Internet. /mike.
