Next wime read that Acceptable Use
Policy (AUP) on your ISP. Inevitably
it contains the Allisat Clause...
which says failing all else these are
our machines and we can do anything
we damn well like with them. Go ahead,
look, read and tell me I'm wrong.
Carte blanche is what the AUP equals.
And we, the citizans, are the ones
who suffer. Arbitrary incursion into
our private and business lives. Period.
