    You are not in the right place. This is a professional forum for ICT technicians in education, not a peer to peer or hackers forum

    Newsbin is a tool, so it isn't bad per say. The issue is what you use it for. He might be wanting to download Linux ISOs for all you know.

    To put it another way, shall we ban discussing Web and FTP servers because they can be used for software piracy?

    This is exactly right - I'm sick of people here assuming what people will use it for. If it is wrong then fine, but don't assume that it's going to be used in that way automatically. You'll all have people hung for a crime they didn't commit.

    I'm looking for some new kitchen knives - anyone got any suggestions? Oh, wait. You can't help me right because I can use these knives to hurt someone.

    Get a grip people. Oh, and rushtech - why not let the mods be mods and you just be a member, rather than telling people how the forum should be run.

    It sounds more like a statement than an opinion.

    Naturally, I'd suggest you make your own. You can either forge them from metal then sharpen them with a steel or whetstone, or knap them from flint. Knife handles can be made from stalks of seaweed - push them on to the knife's tang when still wet, they will shrink on as they dry.
