No he shouldn't. Because if people cannot moderate themselves from childish behavior, and if this list is the target of repeated abuse, it needs some sort of check.
I don't think anyone here wants to see actual content moderation - and I don't think that's the answer to the problem anyways. And certainly no one wants the possibility of information not freely flowing. But this list NEEDS a filter of some sort. A content/SPF filter of some perhaps? On content: Perhaps the list can go un-moderated without allowing profanity - thus filtering out a lot of needless bitch sessions [and continued retribution] ? Certainly there are words that have no place in Full-Disclosure. On SPF: Perhaps some of the bogus impersonation posts would get caught/blocked by a simple SPF check? I don't need a public spanking for posting this. I'm only trying to think of a way that we can do something about what is becoming the serious decline of the list. I can ignore and filter my email just fine - but I know what's going on and I just want to see things get better. They seem to continuously get worse.
