Cocoa NewsPost
Feb 5 2007

JAMESADDISON  WARNING: This software collects your IP address and sends it to the registration server. It states this several times in the License agreement:

"1.2.0 When you purchase a registration code from Cocoa NewsPost software and enter it into the software relevant registration information WILL be sent to the Cocoa NewsPost servers. This information is used to validate the legitimacy of the registration. The information is not stored any where on the Cocoa NewsPost servers or in any database accessible by the public or privately via any network."

Sorry, I'd rather NOT trust this guy to not store my IP. One of the great things about Usenet is it's anonymity, and this software destroys that. If the developer is that paranoid about people stealing his software then I don't trust him anyway. Hopefully someone will write some freeware that performs the same functions as this software.

I'm happy to pay the $20 for good software, but you don't get $20 + my IP address, name, etc. - that's not something I'm going to barter away.

FOR NEXTSOFT  The only information that gets stored is what is required to retrieve your registration number in the event you loose it. The information is stored on a 256bit encrypted disk image within a filevault protected account's home folder on a computer using secure VM. The information kept on record is derived directly from the receipt both you and FOR neXtSoft receive at the time of purchase.
