It seems to me like some of the people who favor a draconian policy
against linking to "attack sites", regardless of context, are coming
from a similar mindset to that which has produced "Zero Tolerance" rules
all over the place these days, as documented here:
http://www.thisistrue.com/zt.html
That mindset dislikes letting the "authorities" have any discretion to
use common sense in administering rules depending on the circumstances;
they'd rather have an absoulute rule, enforced absolutely ([[Judge
Dredd]] style). You see a lot of that both on Wikipedia and in the
outside world these days; too many people want to simplify a complex
world by being absolutist in their following of rules.
