Can't give what they don't have.

Must be wishful thinking. When I read the headline my mind saw Privacy Law instead of Piracy Law!! I liked it better my way. Dang!!

Being they've been at the helm of stashing everyone's loot for centuries now it behooves them to not keep those records. i'll bet anything they'd be incriminating themselves. I like the SAAB though. I think it's Swedish.
