Snowden’s e-mail provider is closing, cannot legally say why

36. You're the only one playing the "comparison" game here. I'm not going along with you.

Because you don't "get it." One thing is not like the other.

Does your dog have fleas, too? Do you have a mild toothache? Is your car running a bit rough?

Add that to the list of gripes you're drafting!

It's not simply about money, but interesting that this is where your mind went straight away.

It's about making a promise to another person--a customer, to whom the provider represented himself as a reliable broker-- that business will be conducted in a reputable way, that a service will be provided, and then ripping the rug out from the people who were relying on the provider, with zero notice--even though the provider knew that the boom was about to be lowered.

He knew about this a while ago. He didn't give everyone a chance to grab their shit. Now they'll never get it back. He could have said "We need to do server upgrades and will have intermittent service--if you have anything on our servers that you can't do without, MAKE A COPY NOW, just in case we lose data."
