No, I get that. It was using it as an extreme example. Someone using
your website may end up making use of some of your data and if I you
very paranoid you could make them click an agreement which included a
limitation of liability clause before being able to use it.

In contractual/liability terms you can't impose a disclaimer like that
just by having a little CC-SA-BY at the bottom of a website (as OSM
does at the moment).
