No. He showed that he thought he could dictate the ToS. I want to be
protected from that sort of mind-set.

I’m not saying that I know for a fact that Larry’s account wasn’t • involation

Not relevant; Larry was well aware of BL’s policies. As I understand it, Larry
knew he was breaking the ToS... he then tried to get cute with Dan. Result (in
American English): Dan kicked his fat ass out of town.
You may argue that Dan could have given Larry another chance or should have
shown more discretion. I’m just not convinced that Larry would not have abused
that and continued to get cute. What do you think? It is notable that Larry’s
posts on this issue lack contrition.
