What damage?

Dan, out of curiosity, might the government block your access to Grex
due to those postings?

resp:26 Yup.

I'm sorry, Dan, but that is a risk you assume by using Grex.  TS could
have posted porn, and I would then run the risk of running afoul of my
company's policies.  I would find it annoying of him to do so, as it
could be damaging to me, but that would be my problem.

People can post what they want on Grex.  It's not going to change based
on whether TS is on the staff or not on the staff.  There's no point and
nothing to be gained by penalizing him for this.

You said there were other reasons why TS should be removed, namely,
looking at private files.  That seems more serious to me as it is a
violation of trust.  It may be inappropriate to discuss it if it would
involve violating people's privacy further.  I don't know if that is
true.  I suggest limiting the discussion to that and deciding whether TS
should be removed for that.  If there's a problem in that area, I hope
it can be resolved short of removing TS.  He's the only treasurer Grex
has, for one thing

You don't have to be on staff to be the Treasurer.

Okay, so that point doesn't need to be important.

No one has to read anything they don't want to on Grex. That's the other side
of being able to post anything one wants.

You can't have universal root access as a concept unless you accept that
files will or could be read.  The honor system usually works but when it
doesn't there's no other way to enforce it.  I mean how do you know that
other staffers with root haven't gotten bored and went snooping around
here.

I think we should ask the court to reopen "Cyberspace vs. Engler."
We'd like to change our position.   :-)

TS, please say you're sorry.

Once we have protected the system from a staffer posting such material,
we will have saved Grex, because surely every other user will see that
it causes a tizzy and thus will avoid doing anything of the sort in the
future.

 So, these restrictions and the classification stuff extends to
 servicemembers' personal computers as well.  TS did what he did
 just to prove an obnoxious point.  In fact, it was in the context
 of discussing my restrictions with seeing that data that TS posted
 it; that's something of a personal afront.  

#22 of 36: by John Ellis Perry Jr. (jep) on Wed, Dec 15, 2010 (13:39):
 Dan, I think it was impolite to post that right after you said it would
 be a problem for you.  I think TS saw that point and censored his responses.

It doesn't matter whether you deleted it.  It's the fact that you posted it
at all.

we can diasagree, peacefully.

Not really.

Yes you can.  If the U.S. and the Chinese can disagree peacefully, then 
so can TS and Cross.  Shake hands guys.

response 42 of 46: Mark Unseen   Dec 21 04:38 UTC 2010

yeah, TS did delete the posts - that's what matters.. in the sense 
that, it may not count in terms of the army, but he did try to fix 
things!

tsty has also invaded user privacy...how can he fix that?
nharmon
response 44 of 46: Mark Unseen   Dec 27 21:30 UTC 2010

First, define what invasion of privacy is not allowed. Without that, I
don't think you can really make accusations.
