Subject: Re: Should I shut down my complete web-accessable cryonet archives?

CryoNet is not now and has never been a "private" mailing list.  I don't
believe anyone should have an expectation of privacy about their writings to
this list, since anyone can join and anyone can access KQB's archive via email.
Furthermore, any list with this many subscribers can hardly be considered all
that private.  If you're that concerned about anyone seeing your writings, you
shouldn't be sending them at all.

I don't think your archives should be shut down just because one person is
annoyed at them.  Consider this a compliment on the archives.  How much traffic
do they see, by the way?
