That seems like a weird policy, though.  nmap, for example, helps people
do dastardly things, but that doesn't mean nmap is a bad program; it's how
you use it that makes you bad.

Teleport Pro, by default, is setup to be a nice little web robot.  Just
because one user configures the program to be evil doesn't mean you should
stop other people who are trying to play nice.  And since you can change
its User-Agent, it doesn't seem like that's going to be very effective,
anyway.
