Does anyone think that JimRob should waive his privacy policy in this case and release the identity of MD4Bush, since the poster obviously was acting in bad faith? We should discuss the pros and cons of this.
I believe that users' IDs are subpoenable with search warrants. So the ethics of voluntarily IDing someone who has acted in truly bad faith, has contacted other media with FReepmails, and the like, are to me justifiable. MD4BUSH is no longer someone who I would protect via the privacy policy. Things have their limits.
