This has been a great (perennial) discussion. Perhaps AOIR should create a
FAQ or a Wiki? Maybe there is one...

I may have missed it but I've not seen anyone note that there is a huge
difference between publically available content versus content that requires
membership to view. Unmoderated membership subscription is an interesting
gray area. 

Perhaps AOIR can provide official opinions about Internet research methods
that will help researchers when they make presentations to their IRBs.
