Hello,
What does it matter whether or not we're likely to be sued? if it is illegal, it's not free content; users can't reuse it under the GFDL without violating the law. Get the law changed if you think it absurd, then we can distribute the key all we want.
It depends. If *no one* is likely to be sued, then it pretty much is free content.

In addition to this (and aren't we big on reality-over-rules around here anyway?), there really isn't a clear case that it's illegal simply to publish the number. That's entirely the opposite of song lyrics, which are unequivocally copyrightable.
