Don't worry. You can only be sued if you get CAUGHT having a copy, i.e.
easy to get instructions on where to find it on a FTP site, etc.
Saying shit, doesn't mean dick squat. Legally, people can say whatever
they want. Doesn't mean anything. Especially saying "some faceless guy on
a computer net said this".. bbs shit can be forged, etc. It wouldn't be
believed.
BTW, I killed JFK, and I have a copy of Quake. Come take me away coppers.
