Bit odd though, how would they track down a customer who hasn't paid their bill if they've destroyed all their details?
And it is a shame to see that advanced societies have no better idea than to trash the most basic civil rights in order to prosecute the filesharing of even one song.
Really good stuff though!
I want to switch right now to these guys just to give them a hiiiiiiiigh fiiiiiiive.
This is not an action spurred out of spite against the incoming barrage of integrity-violating laws but a continuous service that we have provided for our customers since the very beginning in 1994.

The music and film industries are rotten and corrupt. Their garbage should be looked at before buying or listening.
No true artist fears losing sales because someone listened and chose not to buy.
AllTele har beslutat att med omgående verkan ansluta sig till Integrity
initiative och därigenom inte spara några kunduppgifter som kan
komma att lämnas ut enligt IPRED.

And a gun maker could sued if someone shoots someone else.
And a spray paint manufacturer could be sued when someone vandalizes a wall.
And a candle company could be sued if someone leaves a candle burning and starts a fire..
The list goes on and on.
Is there anyone else seeking to make changes in the footsteps of Bahnhof?
