Here's a question for the lawyers here...
Is it possible to write a "Universal Disclaimer"?
One that'll hold me free from harm if advice or information that someone might give for free (or possibly charge for) turns out to be incorrect and results in material damage or physical harm to something, someone or third parties that might be involved?
The nature of the web means information dispersed can end up anywhere so a scenario might be for example:
I publish a set of chassis plans which you download for free, you build the car then whilst driving it a design fault causes you to lose control and mow down a school bus queue.
Any REAL lawyers care to comment?
