It will be fun to see someone lecturing JWZ on what he can do and what he cannot do on the web.

He can try to be an asshole, but no one – not even Sir Berners Lee – has the moral right to be an asshole just for the sake of it.

Torvalds behaviour is justified, as he provides, despite the rough tone, constructive criticism.

JWZ doesn’t even do that.

(Also, sending people a plaintext page explaining the issue would cost less of his traffic, and be less problematic)
