I am sort of reviving this, but sort of not as well.

@BrunoPereira was aware of this, as I poked him about it. I did not flag it as I was being overly cautious, i just wanted moderator input at the time.

But now that I think about it, these "anonymous hosting" sites (including Rapidshare among others) pose somewhat of a security risk, as these "download links" can contain almost anything.

PPAs and official torrents are one thing, anonymous download links are another.

I think we should not allow them, but I'm biased towards listening to the IT Security aspect of using random links that dont provide details and are from "non official" sources (like stuff on mediafire).

Thoughts on this? Moderator input is welcome too :)
