Yes, I've seen that and if the lawyer speak is very verbose its
a good compromise.

Nothing will stop a determined rapscallion(love that phrase! ;-)
But it lets the good guys know who to contact at least if they
do need to.
For example, in my last book the publishers required me to
get a disclaimer from the author of some open source files
even though they clearly stated they could be used for any
purpose. Having the copyright notice with email link made
that easy.
