In an ideal world, where all humans are angels like you are, there would not be a need for an
organisation like the UN. But as the population on this planet consists of many ordinary
people like myself, it is good to have such an institution. I still believe the ideals are
laudable. Of course, there is a certain gap between the ideal and the practise. But that is
known in many organisation. Even in the 2-person comittee governing the washing up in my
household. ;)

But we rather want to talk about botnets and not politics, don't we?
