Well TechCrunch said they handed over IPs, so that would be classed as user info would it not? Hence, if they are denying sending user info they are denying the allegations made against them Last.fm DO, and OPENLY admit to sharing some data with record companies - just read their blog posts - nothing personal of course, just statistical information

Submission + - BBC tech head: "BBC not in bed with Bill Gates (tech.co.uk) 1

He also thinks that "Launching a software service to every platform simultaneously would have been launch suicide", despite the example of many major sites that support Linux (even if this is through the closed source flash player). How the small number of Linux visitors could cause "suicide" is not explained. Most software processes envisage launching to a select group first, then working out the bugs, then making it available to the largest group.
