From where?  If it's being offered on their newserver what would be their
complaint?  "We offer it to our customers ... unless it's illegal then
they are guilty and we are innocent"?????  Providers are blameless and
consumers are guilty?  I love the "constituting or encouraging conduct 
that violates any law" part; I know it was a picture of Monopoly money 
your honor, but I just felt this overwhelming encouragement to go out and
rob that bank.
