just like skydive oh and lets not forget that Microsoft, who so boldly
proclaim they protect their customers privacy where all the time hiving
off their cloud services to the Nasty Shameless Armholes. skype is as
dead a dodo as far as i am concerned too....could go on and on
but...quite frankly i think the only way the internet has ANY hope is if
we adopt a decentralized protocol rather then rely on a central
registration authority  for the  allocation of ip addresses. yeah I know
slightly off topic but relevant. .
