We've seen time and again what happens when a mega gets a foothold in something grassroots: Embrace, extend, extinguish.

It would be far easier for the manufacturer to set up fuses that a killer poke could blow than to jump through all of the (legal) hoops to get hold of an explosive of some kind. And get Legal ready for it, because nothing like this ever affects only the intended group you don't like. To put it another way, one USian gets hurt because it went off at the wrong time and they're in a world of shit.

Ask Amazon why they picked a name that was the same as a small publishing company that had been around for years and sued them into a smoking crater in the ground.

drwho , to Privacy in What is the most appropriate way of tracking web traffic?

The folks who're recommending analysis of your site's access logs are correct. However, Github Pages doesn't have any such notion. You might have to go with the recommendations of moving stuff over to a VPS.

Anybody have a VPN link into HK? It'd be easy to find out.
