This "Illegal number" argument needs to die. Child porn, revenge porn, trade secrets, state secrets, identities of undercover operatives, etc can all be represe

This "Illegal number" argument needs to die. Child porn, revenge porn, trade secrets, state secrets, identities of undercover operatives, etc can all be represented as number. Are you arguing (some of) those things shouldn't be illegal to disseminate because of "Illegal numbers"? This is akin to someone arguing that laws against assault are making "Illegal Force Vectors", and laws against threatening speech are making "Illegal air molecule vibrations".

> Child porn, revenge porn, trade secrets, state secrets, identities of undercover operatives, etc I think we should probably move away from pure possession of information being illegal, in substantial part because it's comparatively easy to plant. But regardless it doesn't have much to do with "illegal numbers".
