I agree, this is rude and as far as I remember, it's not mentioned anywhere in the key upload interface. It's equivalent to uploading someones PGP key to a keyserver without his or her permission.

I had no idea, thanks for the quotes, especially the Turing quote. I hope fetchmail makes its choice too and dies. End of story.
