"Our mandate is to show people that illegal conduct has legal       consequences."              "Clark said people receive two warnings through their ISPs that illegal       activity is happening on their accounts before any legal action occurs. When       it does, a process has been negotiated to start a formal court proceeding.              [...]              "They try to assure people they are not otherwise in trouble by the court       action and says they should resist if asked to pay a large sum of money.              "We want them to be aware of the potential of civil liability but not to feel       scared or intimidated by this," he said.                     --- OpenXP 5.0.57        * Origin: A turtle that surfs the dark web.
