Im aware of the oldness. Still, its really interesting the way the community reacted as if the opening of windows were a plague.

A screaming example would be: http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=96614&cid=8264412

And what I hadnt noticed before was this: http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=96614&cid=8263495

The reactions are what really suprised me. Its not whether or not the sources wre leaked. Its amazing way that even the "underground" sections of the communities were capable of realizing just how dangerous and risky it could be, and decided (rather quickly I might add) whats actually in their better interest. Even despite what they have said in the past.
