But nobody is disputing anybody's right to boycott an internet site, or even moan about it in newsgroups. But I do take issue with this thought of Saabnet providing a "service" and "consumers". If I get bad service in a restaurant, or someone supplies me faulty goods which I have *paid for* I have consumer rights. How much does Saabnet charge you to use their unsatisfactory service??
