Re: Devil's Advocate

said by Devils Advo :

I am going to play devil's advocate here (not that I love VZ). Is it possible that part of their re-transmission agreements for TV stipulate that they have to honor subpoenas for user data? It seems their self-interest is really more of their TV partners self interest (ie they don't stand to gain from any judgements levied by a third party).

They stand to gain by keeping subscribers to the TV service they offer.

Why would anyone advocate for the Devil?

I don't understand...

In order to understand both sides of the argument.

Angel: Don't do that. You'll go to hell.
Devil: Hey, you only live once, sort of. And it's not *that* bad.
Devil's Advocate: And, you'll have fun. Go ahead, it's only once.

Applying that to this topic, you get...

Wiley: Send us your customer data. We want to sue them cause they stole our product.
VZ: It's a copyright violation, and how do you know it was really our customers.

quote:
VZ Angel: Go ahead, we're abiding by the law.
VZ Devil: Since when did law have anything to do with it? It's only books, not movies or music.
Devil's Advocate: Risk customers to jump ship over 10 P2P copyright violations?
VZ to Wiley: Pound sand.

I understand clearly.
