I think Stallman just shot himself in the foot by even revealing that much. Unless a lot of people do the same thing, it's very easy to conclude that it was Richard Stallman who sent that WGET request, granted a few variables. The difficult part is perhaps tracking it back to its actual source, but I don't think Stallman is that hard to find. All this is of course extremely chilling. I'm sure a profile could be built up around WGET requests, and then employing some "likelihood machine" on it, to make educated guesses as to how likely it is that the WGET request was actually from Richard Stallman. I think we've just stumbled upon a new and "fun" Where's Wally game here!
