================================================
Just out of curiosity, with hind-sight vision 20-20 and so on, how does your
words taste today?

 RC> They have the right to protect their assets, income, and well being.

   ... and...

 RC> Perhaps Playboy did.  It is of no concern to me.  You
 RC> got what you deserved.  Actually, I think you deserve worse.

   ... and...

 RC> Perhaps you should hold yourself accountable instead of trying to blame
 RC> others for your own actions.  That there were repercussions for your
 RC> actions and attitudes, is not the fault of anyone but yourself.

   ... and...

 RC> Be mature, and accept your own culpability in the situation you created
 RC> and put yourself in instead of trying to place the blame on others.

   ... and...

 RC> Always the attitude of intellectual property thieves.  Yes they lost
 RC> money because people obtained copyright material from your site instead
 RC> of paying for it like they should have.

   ... so I guess it's no surprise to anyone when I (just like you) say:

 RC> that I cannot find any sympathy for what befell you.

 RC> You have only yourself to blame in the end.  Likely, you are not willing
 RC> to accept your own role in this, and will instead blame others for the
 RC> situation you caused.

   And no, as I've said before, I'm not the vindictive type of person, I wasn't
the one that told your ISP that you were stealing money from them, but I sure
as hell think that whoever brought this upon you did a good thing. Now, maybe
*you* can learn a lesson from *this* at least, since you obviously wasn't able
to learn a lesson from what happened to me last week.
