Re: stupid pirates
Of course, now any non-sweedish people can be tracked with their credit card paying for this service... |

If you figure $80 a year for this service, but a few software packages later like Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Master Collection which is well over $1000 and that pays for the subscription. Add in any music/movies that you want as well and you are saving money.
To me, its not worth it, but to some people I guess you can justify it. |

if the gov't was to request the numbers an the ISP or PB had to turn them over they could be tracked back to who loaded the card and where.
Like if you use Western Union to load a prepaid card credit/debit card they ask for your name on the form and it must match what is on the card. if they don't- they won't load the card. Many issuers of those cards require your name and your SSN as well due to the Patriot Act. |

Western Union here does not ask for anything, no paperwork at all. You hand them the money and they hand you the card. It is pretty much the same at all the places that sell these cards. |

Cleveland, OH | Your WU is in violation of their own TOS. You have to fill out a transaction sheet as well.
That's why they have a form that states "prepaid services" on it. |
