I agree. There's just too much potential misuse behind linking actual subscribers to some hot-link, regardless of one's good intention. I listened today, to the Cybercast of the Department of Commerce meeting on "Privacy on the Internet." It was a good meeting today that brought out some important critical issues on "privacy" facing us. The second meeting is tomorrow. You can catch some of the issues on: http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/privacy/ and the Cybercast should be on at 9:45 a.m. EDT, at: www.news.com/Radio/Rams/privacy98_02.ram Dan Frezza, SFO Listowner of Assisi-L > On Mon, 22 Jun 1998, Thomas Wolff wrote: > > > We're just getting our web interface working.
