I don't particularly care where Jimbo chooses to get his jollies, as long as it's legal - the issue here is that there is a lot of stuff on Wikipedia that promotes/alludes to the illegal sort. There's a big differential.
Precisely.
Whether Jimbo has the sex-life of the Marquis de Sade or Saint Teresa of Ãvila makes no difference to the propriety or otherwise of WP's content, nor of the moral responsibility or otherwise of the WMF.
Come on now, Doc, the guy is the front man and chief donation solicitor for WMF. His public indiscretions are fair game. At the very least it is another illustration of the culture of irresponsibility that surrounds and permeates Wikipedia. This shouldn't be the most important point of any critique, but it is certainly relevant.
