Exploitive? Yeah, but its still nicely executed.
Were I someone to advocate doing things that are of questionable legality (which I'm not especially) I'm thinking this would be the perfect system to do a web attack on. The admins get blocked from their hosting server, the deadman's switch goes off, and out go the Rapture emails! "Ha ha! You didn't get Raptured sinner!" Good thing I'm not 1337.
