If use, duplication, and disclosure is prohibited without express
written permission, and no such express written permission has been
supplied, what's the point of posting this to alt.sources?  Even if
such permission is available, it's quite meaningless to ask for
non-disclosure of any code that's posted to Usenet.

"Non-commercial (profit-making)"...isn't that an oxymoronic phrase?

What has Usenet come to?  (At least, what has the alt.* hierarchy come
to?)
