No, it means that Gentoo is accepting responsibility for carrying the |
| 12 |
posts. Isn't that why threads advocating certain kinds of clearly |
| 13 |
illegal activity (software 'piracy' and hate speech being the most |
| 14 |
common, but also threads which contain people's personal information |
| 15 |
posted without permission) are deleted or locked? |

Remember, unlike the planet, the forums don't advertise their content |
| 18 |
as being written "by Gentoo developers". |
