      It seems to me I remember a new law (in the USA) a few years ago making it a crime (fraud) to enter false information when asked on web sites or something close to that. Anyone else remember anything like that over the last few years? Rocky <>< Yahoo! 360º - Try it yourself![^]

      There is a law that prohibits entering false information when registering a domain name. From Bob Parson's blog:

      It is now illegal to provide false information when registering a domain name. Last year, there was a brief attempt to make registrars responsible for the accuracy of the Whois database. Fortunately, that legislation failed. What did become law was a new, stiff penalty (7 years) for providing false WHOIS information. While this looming jail time might have some sway over US-based crooks, it will do little to get accurate information from those who live overseas.

          Here is how such litigation actually works in court... you CAN provide false information PROVIDED you have no intention to defraud or commit a crime... It is obvious that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing... That has already been reviewed by the supreme Court and they found that criminal penalty may be accessed by any state or federal power UNLESS there is a clear intent to defraud or commit a crime.

I seriously doubt many of us have ever bought anything from a TV show, let alone one of yours. Seriously. All they ever peddle is cheap crap with a dried-up-celebrity endorsement. (Like Betterware[^] but on TV.)

It is often used by people who want to change their name, but can't be bothered actually filling out the paper work (obviously it is better to change one's name officially as then all the government agencies get told about it or can see evidence of the transition so they don't haul one in to court)

                  I wasn't encouraging him, merely correcting him. I'm a teacher, fergoshsakes... I can't help myself. I can't let ignorance pass by without trying to fix it.
