OK, so we not cannot link to the New York Times, after its recent

Maybe I just missed it, but I didn't see an "outing" of any private
information, other than that which was presumably given to the Times with the
understanding that it could be printed. I suppose I am not fully in the loop on that,
but... someone clarify for me if I missed something, please.
