Have those guys rotting at Guantanamo been proven guilty? What was the deal with Sklyarov (http://www.freesklyarov.org/)? Etc.
The "deal" with Sklyarov was that the charges against him were dropped, possibly in part due to the large demonstrations we organized against his arrest. Elcomsoft, his company, was tried, and found not guilty.
What, precisely, is your point?
(It was a done deal, finished a long time ago, but worth citing in any case.) Being thrown in jail for 3 weeks (or thereabouts), and held in the Land of Freedom without allowing to go home (and family) for about 15 months (or so) afterwards doesn't sound something like "innocent until proven guilty" to me. -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds."
