Some things shouldn't be on the net.

Why not?

I guess a lot of people have knowledge of many skills that could be used
for "illegal" activities, but we choose not to. Not sharing the skills
just means that they can be "lost" again. Many a civilisation has
foundered by skills/knowledge not being shared.

Those of us who are male are equipped to be rapists. That we choose
not be be and use the equipment in consensual uses shows that the
equipment is not the problem, like information.

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling
which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being
free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
