I'm afraid that jail can be seen as closer to torture - even a libertarian
jail. [Claustrofobia, lack of one's family, and so on.] I think I'd give
someone a choice between being shot and being put to jail :)

BS. I want some companies to email me. We need a SMTP / POP system with
signatures / e-cash (technological solution, as opposed to legal). If
someone has a signature that my server accepts, it passes - otherwise, if it
has e-cash in a certain amount, it also passes, otherwise it goes to
/dev/null. [Of course, this is just a rough idea, a well-thought protocol
would be way more complicated.]
