Liking the recent news about these people. The courts are coming down hard on them and loving the councils kicking them out of their towns!

its our shitty government trying to win back the people, they are like the kid at school who hides from the trouble, then runs in when everyone else has sorted it and kicks someone on the floor

When they evict that family, what exactly will they do with them?
Make them homeless or move them into another cushy flat but not report that in the papers?

Ben Ward, mobile technology expert
Not only are Rim (Research in Motion, Blackberry's owner) the most secure messaging operator, they're also the most fastidious - they log everything. If you were a looter using a Blackberry, you're going to get found out.
The police have the power to serve Rim with an order to reveal information. Under the same law, Rim are barred from disclosing whether they've done so or not.
But although Rim can't say it themselves, I can say with confidence that they'll be doing everything they can to help. It's a reputation issue - these people are a tiny minority of their users and they want the remainder to see them doing all they can to track them down.
Rim don't need to reveal the actual contents of messages in order do that. They can tell police who sent a message to whom and when. The police can then ask the network operators where that was done - and the sum total will probably be enough to be used as evidence.
If you know a Blackberry belonging to a suspect sent a message to 45 other Blackberries and then those 45 owners all turn up in Ealing or Tottenham an hour later, it's clear what's going on.
