But that begs the question - how do you know the downloads were to
Dolby? At the very least, you're going through your server logs and
doing lookups on some or all of the entries. At least twice, you've
announced the likely corporate affiliation of the visitor to this
site.

Well Scott, I do have this policy of giving straight answers to technical
questions, even to my enemies.

Web logs contain IP addresses related to accesses to my site.
It is often trivial to turn IP addresses into the names of the domains from
which they come from.

In particular, I use a program called "Analog" to process web logs and it
does this automatically, breaking down the domain names by country, etc. and
listing them out. This is a standard traditional web server log analysis
function.

And for taking Weil's side, I've covered this before. Just because I
agree with him in this instance, it doesn't mean that I like him or
that I dislike you by extension. Geez! You and your "enemies"....You
sound like Nixon.

Thanks again Scott for again taking the side of my enemies. This is actually
a fun scam to watch in action. The basic gambit is to hold me responsible
for even the most trivial things I do, while simultaneously ignoring the
major ethical malfeasance of my enemies. When I point this out to you, you
say something blithe like" Oh, I did that, didn't I?

LOL!


You never answered the most important part of my question -
why you've, at least twice, announced the likely corporate affiliation
of visitors to your site on this newsgroup.
Examining your server logs is good administrative policy. I
do the same thing. I don't routinely do lookups on the IP addresses
of visitors, but I do see how it would be interesting. I just want to
know why you took the extra step of announcing your findings on this
newsgroup.

And as far as your imagined "scam" - I really ignore more
stuff than you give me credit for - both from you and your "enemies".
Notice that I've never nitpicked your grammar and/or spelling. That's
the kind of stuff I consider trivial and bull****. I've also never
bought into this whole "proven pedophile" crap - which is what it is.
That's bull**** too. Needlessly posting information from your server
logs to this newsgroup is another thing.
