still getting this message in 2019. doesn't seem like a very "critical time sensitive" notification.
how is this legal !?!? i thought for sure i had a virus.
http://bsonspec.org/spec.html is the page i was visiting
@r3wt how is this legal? what law makes it legal? When a customer is coming to my site and they intercept the code that I own the copyright to and modify it, they are illegally making a derivative work of my code. I don't see how anyone can claim this is legal. I am waiting for a response from our attorneys, we are looking for any cases that legalize this, but right now I don't see how anyone can claim this is legal.
