Cache owner liability

[wx-man]

Thought I'd throw this one out there...

 

Are cache owners included in this statement?

I am assuming that "cache owners" are synonymous with "website authors"...

 

Is this a fair assumption?, or should I consider adding an additional disclaimer to each of my cache pages. I'm not a lawyer, just was wondering what everyone's thoughts were whether this needs to be defined as cache-owners and not "website authors".

Or how about this

 

Hunt this cache at your own risk, as I am a poor b@$+%rd and can't even afford the $3 monthly subscription fee - if you try to sue me you won't get anything because I don't have anything!
