No way to tell other than the fact that Inter@ctive Magazine and
several other publications have tried it and they all have come to the
conclusion that the info that was transmitted was the info the RW
asked if it could send.  Of course everybody keeps ignoring that fact
so that they can go off on these wild joyrides with reality.  

I said it before and I will say it again, post something new or quit
wasting bandwidth with the same old speculation on what MS might have
the capability to do.  What completely amazes me is that this thread
continues despite the fact that not one piece of information had been
presented that would even be lightly considered as evidence of
wrongdoing.  

I am not a MS defender, I am trying to defend critical thought.
