The Register Takes Aim at Wikipedia Again 630
Syberghost writes "The Register has fired off another salvo in their long-running war of words with Wikipedia, in the form of an article about the lack of "moral responsibility" from the operators of Wikipedia. Wikipedia users fired back less than an hour later, making the Register headline obsolete."

Espcially when the topic has been already rehashed a few hundered times in these very comments.

I attribute this scandal to the streak of rugged individualism present in American culture. When will you Yanks learn that the truth is decided by experts, and that expertise is determined by well-known and respected members of a field?

It's because of people like you that my hair dryer has a warning not to use it while sleeping.
I know too many people who think Wikipedia is a reliable source of information.
Then just give them a hair dryer and tell them it's nap time, problem solved.

And now people are trying to use slander and legal tactics to damage them, a non-profit, free online resource, made up of volunteers. Humanity doesn't get any lower than that.
It's hilarious, or not; Wikipedia's critics are exactly what they claim to oppose, unaccountable slanderous bastards.
Sorry for the rant, people who are so bent on controlling other people just really piss me off.
