It has recently been reported that Attorney’s General’s from about a dozen U.S. States, including Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Mississippi, Maryland, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania have demanded that News Corporation’s social networking site MySpace voluntarily deliver to the AG’s a list of all sex offenders who have registered for or used the MySpace social networking service.

That is an interesting thought. I wonder if there is a way to get an ISP/Yahoo to go along with this....Such as, let them know you are going to pull this off, then tell the media that the ISP/Yahoo isn't providing the info. When asked why you think it would, make the comment "well, it worked for the AG, why not me, a customer/investor?"

I know it won't work, but may highlight to those on the fence of this issue, that indeed, the AGs who asked for this infomation didn't go about the request in a "proper" manner as well.
