You are absolutely right. Anyone has a (paid) (Linux) job for me?

Also - sorry for being annoying, but I try to keep the spam down 
and when the graphical turing test I offered to block email 
harvesting bots was just turned away I was a little disappointed. 
Well, maybe I am wrong and this is not really an issue, then sit 
back and relax. Maybe my contribution will also be rejected from 
bugtraq. But I feel millions of email addresses are worth a bit 
more security/privacy.
