There's a story on NBC local news about a website that tells travelers where they can buy marijuana. The story says "NBC10.com won't name the site, but it offers a global guide to where and how people can get pot." Even in their photo slideshow, they again emphasize that they are not naming the site. Presumably this is to keep kids from stumbling upon it, or encouraging people to discover the site. However, the screenshots in the 11-picture slideshow about a website clearly show large chunks of the website. Googling any part of the text appearing in the images pretty instantly reveals the site in question. So either reveal the name, or don't put up screenshots of pages if you don't want to disclose the site. I guess it's surprising that the first image isn't big enough for you to see what is typed into the address bar (I can't believe they use Internet Explorer).
The best quote from the article? "'That's a bunch of crap,' said Horsham police captain Joesph Repkoe, who is no fan of the site."

I can't believe they use Internet Explorer either. Everybody knows that Mozilla Firefox is the best web browser.
