 BF>> Is it? Isn't the ISP responsible for what is published on their website?

 BF>    Sigh...

 BF>    Yes Björn, if the ISP has a web site of their own they are responsible
 BF> for what is being published on that specific site.

And now it appears that the police have an agreement with the 20 biggest
providers that they should close sites with child porn.

 BF>    But ISP means internet service provider, the service they provide for
 BF> their customers and how those customers are using that service is not
 BF> their responsibility any more than it's the Post Office's responsibility
 BF> what people send via mail or the TelCo's responsibility what people say
 BF> over the phone.

See above.

 BF>    Don't you see that this is just another trick the media industry is
 BF> using to shut down what's become a symbol for free, horizontal, P2P
 BF> communication between people, i.e. TPB, rather than the way they want it
 BF> to remain: the old vertical communication where they have total control
 BF> over the content?

Just because you or Roy or Ross or whom ever says that it is so or so I don't
have to buy it, you are all too focused on your own stories.
The other day I watched Uppdrag Granskning (Mission Examining) on TV where
they investigated the kicking/killing of a young boy in Stockholm and 2 were
convicted of it. They couldn't prove that both were guilty but both went down
for it and they had about 20 witnesses and not even two (2) of those witnesses
told the same story. What do you think of that?
