     Your entire "philosophical" argument is that maintaining wares like Wavy
Navy, Raster Blaster, etc. on sites like Asimov is illegal. Yet, despite
rantings and complaints from a few troublemakers, no one is shutting down
Asimov, 'Fairway, Vault, ..., or Emulation Net, or similar C-64 sites.

     Your view of "illegal" is at variance with that of legitimate law
enforcement authorities. That is sufficient grounds for rejecting it.
