Well, if you’ve read my rambling on CopyBot you’ll know I detested the speculation and rumours that surrounded it and turned the whole thing into a major drama show.
Thankfully I saw libsecondlife’s recent post Your World, Your Imagination, Your protocol.
In the post they link to three “fact vs. fiction” sites (which I’ll link here to pad this post out a bit):

Well, that should be the end of that. It should, but what is that I hear? “!quit” you say? aww crap! We’re now plagued by “simple copybot protection” and other such nonsense, this spam is possibly more of a problem than the CopyBot itself was (exageration perhaps). For more information see Spambot backlash… need help or search for !quit in a forum near you.
