actually it wasn't

Pete apparently didn't have anything on any of his hard drives

After obtaining copies of the Landslide hard drives and tracing Townshend's actions, investigative journalist Duncan Campbell wrote in PC Pro Magazine, "Under pressure of the media filming of the raid, Townshend appears to have confessed to something he didn't do."

      - lovely old facts, a bit like 3D from massive attack (General Chat) - pants, May 16, 12:05:12
        
        here's the article about it in the Guardian (General Chat) - blindasabat, May 16, 12:06:09
        
        Around the time, from what I gathered, 3D bought a cd from a website (General Chat) - pants, May 16, 12:11:29
        
        badly worded (General Chat) - pants, May 16, 12:12:26

        So should one really not buy stuff over the net? (General Chat) - Old Git, May 16, 12:48:08
        
        I wouldn't go that far. The larger outfits are much less at risk of that sort of thing (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, May 16, 13:07:34
        
        less risky than using it 'for real' in some places (General Chat) - megson, May 16, 12:52:32
