I'm all for internet security, beef up. Heres the thing though: Honeypot sites are pretty low-level as hacking tricks go. I've had people on this site (as well as others) have tried to PM me links to nasty malware, its just something that happens when you step on toes.

And why take all that risk to implement a top-level tool on the lowest denominator of attack vectors? It would be like building a race car that runs on the motor from a weedwacker...
