[ we have had this discussion before. how many times are we doomed
to have it? ]
in the north american culture, this is usually termed "guilty
until proven innocent," and generally discouraged. perhaps we
should not deprive the customer of rights/services until they
have been shown to have abused them?
lars-johan's posting was a wonderfully eloquent plea for the
survival of the internet, as opposed to the walled-garden telco
model.
