I disagree. Vandalism is direct actual damage to our

expect admins to never take screenshots of deleted pages, and to hold
close to their chest any information declared verboten?), but the
legal argument I'm not sure I buy- the guilty one is the one
retrieving it and publishing it. We removed it, in good faith. While I
am not a lawyer, our responsibility seems minimal.
We could keep the contact information of people who make legal
complaints to the office, and then if/when Wikitruth.info republishes
the material inform the complaining party so they go after
wikitruth.info.
Would that constitute disrupting their lives to make a point? Yes.
Should we do it? Absolutely.
