Can you give more information about this provision? Is an ISP responsible
for the actions of their users? Is a message board owner liable if someone
posts unauthorized material? What about an email service provider? What
about foreign sites, or corporate sites? If someone on Blogger posts
unauthorized material, would Google's French connections be cut off? Would
Larry and Sergey be blacklisted?
