a long established principle that often has those who would trample our rights to get a life. I normally wouldn't care about programs such as Cyber Patrol, but when you have Mattel & a federal judge telling us (all over the world) what we can and can't distribute / publish, things are not going well. I do not see how any judge could enforce his/her/its ruling not to distribute cphack. That judge will only end up impotent. Mattel wants to limit the "damage" caused by cphack through intimidating strong-arm tactics? I doubt they can succeed unless the Net is ruled by whimps. We don't need to rely on mirrors and staying one click ahead of the censors. There are other effective ways to distribute cphack, too. Anybody wanting copies of cphack and the documentation can get them from a very offshore e-mail-on-demand system: barf@163.net with the subject line: Screw Mattel Why do this? Because I can.
