We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

This is true only to a degree. cops in banks really do not stop bank robbers if they are really intent upon robbing the bank. Likewise, the cop who you slow down for only slows you momentarily, then you go back to your morally questionable activities. ;)

The will to do wrong will not be prevented by the threat of reprisal in many cases. For you, the morally educated, such threats apply, for you fear them. But for those who are not fearful and are not educated morally, the threat holds no sway. If it did, there would be much less crime.
