Pastebin.com arms itself against misuse

[ronjor]

The owner of Pastebin.com plans to monitor posted content more carefully. According to a BBC article, Jeroen Vader, the 28-year-old Dutch entrepreneur who bought the platform in early 2010, is going to hire employees to watch for any sensitive information that may be posted on Pastebin.com.

pastebin.com seems to be the most stable and accessible, which is desirable when trying to spread a message, I guess

I've used a few others in the past and found them to be either less convenient to use, less convenient to read, or less stable (ie. more downtime). I have no doubt the alternatives are better now, butr ather than putting in the effort to find a great alternative, it's probably easier for those identifying with Anonymous to just use pastebin.com to divulge leaked information.

Or this -http://sebsauvage.net/paste/ . Actually ZeroBin is open source and that's where anonpaste came from.

I wish my last name was Vader and that my parents had named me Darth.
