The fact that you are providing a tool that may assist in committing a
federal punishable crime may in itself be reprehensible under federal
law. Just look at what the DMCA and the Patriot Act brought with them,
and you'll understand just how far reaching some federal statutes can
go.

If there is a risk, better for that risk not to be taken by the
Community, I think it has got enough issues to deal with as it is.
