That because we signed > non-disclosure agreements (which I know I didn't, and would > bet that Arnie didn't) we were targets for raids. Because > Grady didn't, he wasn't a target. SO: >I've been following a.r.s. for quite some time now, and have posted fairly >regularly (first under the alias Steve Winslow, then under my real name >Wendel, and now under the alias WebWalker) and was under the impression that >it was normal procedure for the Co$ to get all members (at least over a >certain level) to sign some sort of non-disclosure document. The practice was less than fully enforeced. Often the documents were forwarded by a basket system and could be disregarded. The documents presented to the court in my case were questionable at best and totally bogus at worst. Arnie, not being a trained auditor, would not have signed any. >A couple of Co$ >supporters on a.r.s. have said so too, that because of these documents they >couldn't discuss certain things. Perhaps you should ask them what they signed. >The impression I have of Co$ is that they follow certain rules, and that >they are fairly predictable because of this. And my impression is also that >the Co$ would act the way I wrote, that is go after former members, hitting >them over the head with these documents, and using the documents to get >writs of sezure, since it would most probably be easier to get such a writ >with the help of such documents, than through accusations regarding mere >copyright infringements. This would also mean that the risk for raids would >be minimal for those, like Grady Ward, who are not former $cienos. This is implicit. They have reams and reams of confessions of Arnie and me. They feel safer because they think they know all our dirty little secrets. >You say that you never signed any documents. OK you should know. But you >could have corrected me in a more civilized way than you did. And *that* is >what this is all about..... Yea, you're probably right. Brash American humor might be too much for your gentle Scandinavian sensibilities. I was only trying to be funny. Sorry. I quit chainsmoking 3 packs of cigarettes only a couple of weeks ago. Perhaps it's effecting my usually gentle nature. >Yours, >SW +--------------------------------------+ Rev.
