Six Apart's suspensions couldn't have been compared to Sentinel SAFE type data, or there wouldn't have been so many erroneous suspensions. Also, as I keep saying to make myself extra-unpopular, we have no proof ANY of the Six Apart suspensions were of sex predators. Thanks to WfI and Six Apart going off half-cocked, no one probably ever will.
It's possible, though, Six Apart thought they were doing the same thing MySpace had, or at least that it would be perceived that way by the public, so they would get praise and back-pats.
Any decision Six Apart makes will ultimately be based on profit, yep. I agree.
Regardless of what Six Apart does in the near future, I've concluded their customer service is mind-bogglingly terrible, and I don't want to give them any more money. Insane Journal is looking good to me.
