There are enough people here giving permission, it seems to me, that it's
unnecessary to use that of anyone who doesn't want it used for this purpose.

Yes, we only had one person who didn't want their postings used, and we
were able to avoid doing so without any great inconvenience.

Even if postings here were copyrighted, the "fair use" exception
allows us (or the prosecution) to present them in a lawsuit.

resp:27 it may be silly, but I damn well claim ownership to everything
(well, most everything) I've ever posted in the poetry and writing
confrences

Just to clarify: we haven't used anything against anyone's request. I heard
back from 17 of the 21 people who posted to the pornography item. 16 said to
go ahead and use their material, one requested that we not use it. We cut the
item so that none of that user's responses were submitted. Of the other 4, 2
are no longer on Grex, and 2 haven't written back to me yet, and I don't have
phone numbers for them.
6 of the 8 respondents to the poetry item have given permission, and I haven't
heard from the other 2.

Should further exhibits be necessary, and anything I have said fits, you may
use it, but not my name.

I don't think copyright rules apply to evidence in lawsuits. I suspect that
if your writings are being used, any information we have about who you are
would also be likely to be brought into evidence.

I don't think that's correct Steve. Check with the legal eagles, but I
believe that protective orders can be sought that place restrictions on
the discovery process. I also believe privacy concerns are legitimate
grounds. And, since we are asserting in part that we value anonymity, I
think it would be hypocritical of us to not seek such an order if
identities are about to be revealed.
