     #Termbin is a nice #pastebin !hack https://termbin.com/
     Obvious down side: no #TLS #security.
     But it's also #nonobvious if any of the other pastebin tools use TLS—where TLS is easily added in front of #termbin and clients just swap #netcat for #socat or #gnutls.

     I wonder if I'd be less critical of this sort of !hack'ability of systems of law if I'd ever seen anyone actually use the power for good; but it seems like it only ever gets used for..., I don't know—for teh lulz?
