You seem to be saying that Malwarebytes took it upon themselves to Block the IP of an innocent Internet user (no convictions for anything AFAICT). That seems to me like a commercial operation is acting as judge and jury and installing a blocking mechanism on the computers of MBAM users without their knowledge. Is that right? If it is, is such action legal? -- Dave

Then, rightfully the thread was locked, but not before we provided anyone interested several google links explaining who Sharon Franks (another pcbutts handle actually) was. I suppose, Dave skipped that. -- "Hrrngh! Someday I'm going to hurl this...er...roll this...hrrngh.. nudge this boulder right down a cliff." - Goblin Warrior |
