Remember how the UK was just playing a word game by claiming that it wouldn’t disconnect users from the internet via Peter Mandelson’s Digital Economy Bill? That was quickly debunked, as people realized that the gov’t was simply changing how it described the disconnection, calling it a “temporary account suspension” instead. Of course, that’s still a disconnect. Another unresolved question, however, was how long is temporary? Turns out the answer is however long Peter Mandelson thinks is appropriate.
