[Air-L] question: published on the internet

[Mark Goldstein]

And is the "published" item posted to the open web for all comers or
reserved behind some password/portal for a select audience with specific
policy agreements or even contained within a commercial licensed data source
where each access is expected to be transactional. The first case carries
much more "liberal" rights for all comers if indeed it is intentionally
"published," but as Dr. Zimmer asks below, is it unintentionally on the open
web in which case other ethics and factors may well apply.

I think the other necessary clarification is what is meant by "published" --
that choice of term is seems loaded, presuming a purposeful action by a
knowing agent.

Is something made visible due to a security hole "published"?  Something
leaked? Something hacked? A confidence betrayed?
