Not being American (or a lawyer, no matter how many feathers), I'm often amazed by the amount of use of the U.S. Constitutional Amendments. I'm equally amazed by any possible misinterpretation of said amendments. The DMA feels that the list is unconstitutional (it's anti-free speech). The parent states that: "the right of free speech does not entitle one to an audience." Is there a right NOT to be an audience? If so, blocking the list is unconstitutional - would it not?

-P port
Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that
this option is written with a capital 'P', because -p is already

Sorry, had to, but wouldn't that be an even better deterrent?
