<soapbox> This is very important. I've been supporting the ORG campaign and also the stuff going on at the 38 Degrees website. Latest news last week is that Mandelson stepped down on disconnection without warning. You will now have to get 3 official warnings before any disconnection and there will also be a proper appeals process. It's not clear yet if this will involve a proper court case and a judge looking over every disconnection request, but hopefully it will. Guilty until proven innocent is not justice. Progress is being made in fighting this but we need to keep going.</soapbox><div>

</div>Worth mentioning as well, the ORG (Open Rights Group) are also campaigning against<br>
the P2P disconnection mesures, Its worth checking out their campaigns as well.<br>
