That's what my original thought was, but it didn't contribute anything to the discussion and wasn't really funny, or witty Given HNs population I had hoped you did author these tools. That you have so many votes is disheartening.
When it comes to investigating these sorts of thing, gray areas often pop up. Now, is fetching the payload yourself and hosting it for the world without the author's in this gray area? Probably not, definitely in the very light side of things if it is at all. It's not completely unworthy of thought and consideration however.
>wasn't really funny
Well, that's your opinion, and you are welcome to it. Do try not to be so puzzled that other people don't share your sense of humor though.
