This does assume "we" (the dumpshock.com crew) wouldn't fight back, for
example by taking down the webring so the evil corporate attackers would
have a harder time locating the SR sites.

So that leaves the alternative of going the warez-route :)

Which, BTW, would simply cause me to pull out. Whether or not I'd make
available the PW material somewhere else, I don't know. I'd probably be so
fed up with the whole thing that I wouldn't want anything more to do with
"them," but OTOH that would mean letting them win without even so much as a
fight.
