A few months ago an acquaintance told me they were using someone else`s
password etc. to access a certain regularly mentioned ISP on this list.
When I
queried this, asking whether they co-ordinated their access so that only one
person was connected at a time, he said no, and that actually he knew of 10
others who were using the same password/access codes. God knows how many
there actually were/are.
