http://www.infowars.com/leading-uk-isp-says-it-will-defy-governments-net-censorship-bill/ A leading internet service provider in the UK has declared that it will refuse to follow government orders to restrict, slow down or cut off its customers’ internet access under rules set out in Lord Mandelson’s (pictured) Digital Economy Bill. The provider, TalkTalk, which has over 4 million internet users, has declared the legislation “draconian” and says it will not cooperate with its provisions. Andrew Heaney, TalkTalk’s director of strategy and regulation has said the company will repel any instructions to disconnect customers unless instructed to by the courts. “If we are instructed to disconnect an account due to alleged copyright infringement we will refuse to do so and tell the rightsholders we’ll see them in court.” Heaney wrote on the I reckon they are just capitalizing in on this as people will simply get talk talk as their new isp. Who owns talk talk???????? time to do some research me thinks. |

You know what? As soon as I read the title of this thread I said "TalkTalk". They'll do/say anything to get more customers. What a shame that the service they provide doesn't live up to their hype and our expectations. I'll take my chances with getting switched off I think. |

Even if Mr Heany is just saying this as a marketing ploy as long as it pisses Mandelson off I'm happy with it. |
