Gregory's Server@kytta Seems like a neat idea, kinda, but I think if it were me thinking about building such a thing, I’d have pause for thought as I’d worry about how it might add to to things like this: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2021/02/19/i-will-slaughter-you/

@kytta Keep in mind also, given the nature of the tool, it potentially puts you in the crosshairs of someone like the author of those emails; there’s potential for you setting yourself up as been seen as the author of a “stalking tool”.

@davep in this case, I expect the typical open-source licence to cover for me :D "IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORTIOUS ACTION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS SOFTWARE."  |
@davep yup, a very good point. I really do not want to empower stalking and harassing of others. I want it to be just a time saver, really; nothing I wouldn't find myself in, say, one minute of searching, and definitely nothing that people might unwillingly put online
