Dave,
Most people define hacking as something a little more complicated than
downloading a file from a web site. I would be suprised if anyone
bothered to save copy, for threatening purposes or otherwise. I thought
we covered this during our conversation at Defcon, the one where you
seemed content with discussing the issue like the stupid faux pax that it
was. If you there is something you want to talk about, feel free to email
off-list or call. I really need to meet this "Everyone" guy, he seems to
have all exclusive info :-)
