well my sister had a bad time with that site because her friend used her computer to log onto HC using his own account. They accused them of multinicking and handshaking because they used the same computer but what happens if people are married or living together?
Anyway I went on there and was moderated and promptly suspended for making a couple of pretty mild comments. Mostly to do with Internet censoreship..no swearing or arguing just expressing an opinion.
When i sent them an email questioning my suspension I was given the run around and eventually permanently suspended.
I was infuriated so I did some digging...
Hotcopper is owned/run by a couple of Perth based IT companies one of them being a company called Highway1. This company is currently involved in trialling Internet filtering software for the government..
