Re: Brilliant IDEA !

Yeah I mean it's not like they could control software from another country... [/end sarc]

Unless they are actually proven to steal personal information this has absolutely no business entering the criminal arena which jail time would require. If you want to pursue this then why not your isp and search engines for routinely selling your browsing habits to the highest bidder largely for a pittance.

This just reaffirms the judicial system still has no idea what to do with the internet.

Exactly my point.

These clowns get involved in stuff they don't know. It's amazing how dumb this crap is.
