I uploaded something to usenet the other day. Hard to get, and I figured since I had to get it from another network (only afterwasting GB of bandwidthgetting an unrepairable file mind you), I'd just go ahead and reupload it to usenet so other UN users don't have a hard time, or can't get it at all. The next day I saw the NZB collection for it posted here by someone else. (I don't have any hard feelings about it either) However, I'd like to post up the NZBs myself since I've gone through some effort to get it elsewhere. Problem is, safety is a big concern these days. It's risky just downloading the material sometimes. Posting the NZBs to FST could represent a big concern if some media company got a hard on for people uploading their content. Uploading the NZBs myself might ruin the anonymity of the process, particularly if the forum gets compromised at a future date.
I wanted some thoughts from other uploaders, anon or otherwise on how this is handled. FWIW, I'm not taking credit for the rips, I try to keep the scene names exactly the same if I still have them when I goto reupload. It would be nice though for others to know who is sharing content. Then, maybe when I need something, someone else would be more likely to contribute to help me.
Thanks.
