Lets not forget that this is an international forum. Discussion of what is/is not legal is therefore moot. Here in the UK we have a completely different set of stupid laws. And consequently code green IS NOT illegal....maybe.... (most of the UK laws are rather "nebulous" and open to different interpretations). E.g. I'll see all you posters in court! You sent my email, but nobody gave you authority to 'access' my mail server!

I have to agree with Michael Rudel. When we're discussing the ethics/morals of something current laws are irrelevant.
