We don't manage other people's data on their behalf. We assimilate it  
into the collective, and it thereby becomes everybody's data. We  
modify it, delete it, replace it, change all of its properties and  
tags as we see fit. If people are not happy with this then they  
shouldn't give us their data.

Bye
Frederik
