Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Congratulations! You've made "vigilante" status in the local paper! While the article was probably slanted a little towards UUnet (probably because its easier to interview UUnet spokesmen than cyber-people), it was telling that on the opposite page was an article explaining that the reason you got an email advertising porn was possibly because you posted on Usenet.
