Outsiders have the same expectation. That's how the web works. If SU et al. wish to depart from that, they can require non-insiders to take a test, before allowing them to participate in any way. SU et al. opt, instead, to let outsiders plunge right in. Then the attacks begin. Surely it's not a deliberate trap. But that is the net effect. | |
