Well my position has always been "let people upload" without a huge 
control structure that makes sure we know exactly who has uploaded what 
so that we can ban them if they upload porn, or ads - and others have 
replied that we are responsible for making sure that such bad things 
don't happen or if they happen, don't happen again.

Maybe we can just dump info into a log file on upload so that if we have 
a really bad case of vandalism we can still look through the logs but 
the info doesn't have to be readily available in the DB.

Bye
Frederik
