No, Stephen, that conclusion would be wrong. I do care about Jimmy's risk. But I am also capable of separating it from the project's risk. As a contributor, my primary concern is with the project and the pages that I have edited. Rather than starting to police other users in order to protect Jimmy, I'm asking Jimmy what he feels I can do to help him.
The background was this: I had earlier claimed that the fear of copyright violation was exaggerated and that really only Jimmy and Bomis were at risk. Someone else then claimed that the entire project was at risk, and now I tried to demonstrate that this was in fact not the case.
