Amigo follows up on serious allegations about H&P and says: "I also just asked Unisys as it says here, and am waiting for a reply. If true, H&P could probably be forced to close."
[ If H&P indeed didn't pay royalties for Unisys' GIF algorithm, they might not be forced to close per se, but if this is indeed true, and Unisys decides to sue, they might have to pay some serious fines. Also note that while this is not in unmoderated, it's highly speculative, unconfirmed and generally should be taken with the usual grain of salt - CK ]

Serious allegations about H&P : Comment 22 of 164 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 08-Nov-2001 20:21 GMT | In reply to Comment 20 (Anonymous): People vote anonymously in a democracy so that people need not worry that their voting choices will count against them afterwards, or used against them in any way. It is safety for the voter. The voter is not posting libelous/slanderous material on a public website behind an anonymous proxy.
All we have is your word on this. And you are not willing to back your word up with your name. So you are just stirring up trouble against H&P, possibly on some private vendetta. If you really had a point, you would ask H&P for information, and you would ask the other parties involved as well. You would not just come here and spout off your theories as the truth.
Did you know that even anonymous proxy providers will give up the logs upon a court order? |
