Read Shaw's terms of use - bet it allows them to do that. So, you just changed internet providers, not volunarily, but you're still posting to wpg.general. See you've already found anpther ISP and I bet there are others that'll be glad to take your money and give you an account. I trust that if you had Shaw cable you cancelled. Would be silly on your side to still keep Shaw cable after they turfed you from their ISP. I know where you live. Your detrcators have posted your address often enough, and that's something no one on this new group ought to have found out. Anyways, you're not that far from the law courts. I'm surprized that you haven't grazed in the files there. 3 of your detractors are in those files.
