Umm, exactly how do you know what's being sold is a pirated or otherwise
illegal copy?  Am I selling "pirate" software if I see my copy of Office for
5$?  It doesn't matter if I paid 1000$ for it; I can sell it for what ever
I want -- I can give it away if I wanted.

Hotmail is not an ISP.  Any idiot can get a hotmail account -- several if they
wanted.  In my book, hotmail ranks right up there with AOL for people to
avoid simply because of the caliber of idiots it attracts.  (You've never
tried to track down a hotmail user.)

>Perhaps the same one one "hides" behind a "my-dejanews" address?

The simple fact is that you are using services that have little to no power
to do anything to you for your actions.  That is one of the primary reasons
people use hotmail and dejanews... to "hide" from punishment.

How many people on the net have you pissed off or otherwise alienated over
the years?  How many ISPs have terminated your service?
