The assumptions people make in here never cease to amaze me.
The newspaper article stated that I'd talked to a lawyer
(actually I've talked to several, including one in Toronto);
but, the newspaper article did not say "who" or "what" I'd talked 
about. Apparently you are assuming that if I sued, it would
be CCN. You shouldn't make assumptions.

However, it's not so that she is not harmed in some way by the
withdrawal of CCN service. CCN is a "Freenet". There is NO
"alternative" Freenet service here. She would not have a tough 
time showing that she has been harmed in some way by withdrawal
of CCN service. And I submit that she would not have a tough
time showing that she has been harmed by particular individuals
in here.
