-Caveat Lector- [This reminds me of 1. Nuremberg files (abortion doctors), 2. Jim Bell (federal agents, to some extent), 3. Justicefiles.org (police). Though in Sweden, as Jacob Palme notes (http://www.politechbot.com/p-01165.html), an activist posting the names of some bank directors he believed were acting unethically was prosecuted under the country's implementation of the European Data Directive. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out; the page appears to be at http://www.candidlist.demon.co.uk/ --DBM] http://www.telegraph.co.uk:80/et?ac=000140326706927&rtmo=QwOwOQ0R&atmo=QwOwOQ0R&pg=/et/01/4/16/ncand16.html Pro-euro directors 'shamed' By Benedict Brogan, Political Correspondent COMPANY directors face being "shamed" in their homes by anti-euro protesters who are copying animal rights extremists with an internet campaign targeted at firms that support the single currency. Details of 50 companies and their senior executives have been posted on a website that warns "they are betraying their country". People are urged to boycott their products and "communicate your anger". The campaign emerged as the Government repeated its commitment against "bullying and intimidation" by animal rights "criminals" who have terrorised workers at Huntingdon Life Sciences. Last night the Candidlist website was condemned by MPs, and the Institute of Directors said it was "sinister". The website, which tracks the European sympathies of parliamentary candidates, has launched a "Roll of Shame" that promises to publish home addresses of pro-euro company directors from firms including British Airways and Unilever. Others on the list include British Midland, Dyson, Kellogg's, Diageo, ICI, Mitsubishi and Sony. Its creator, Sean Gabb, the libertarian writer, describes the companies as "active supporters of the drive to destroy British self-government". In an explicit invitation to persecute senior executives of the firms listed, he says: "Should you wish to communicate your anger at the activities of these companies, you can find details of how to do so by clicking on the name of the relevant company. Please note that we provide the home addresses of directors together with other useful information. We advise all our readers to use this material legally and responsibly."
