Your post is apologia and misinformation intended to misdirect.  How's the weather in Tel-Aviv?     . How do you figure that?    The whole tome of that post was to say that while it may be frivolous, it can lead to a greater good by setting precedences for those who may not be doing it for frivolous reasons. Traditionally universities have very little culpability, play by their own rules, and have very little outside oversight. I don't see how your response would apply at all. Universities would straighten up and fly right if they thought some of the practices their employee's follow, which they traditionally ignore, could open them up to legal recourse as well, especially in an increasing frequency.
