Seems to me that the US got very upset with the Finns when they had
on their systems material that the US authorities felt was
inappropriate for US people to access. I HEAR tell we strongly
insisted it be "removed" from access else the networks connection
would be terminated.
I wonder if for example, a Finn sent a message to a Japanese which
contained material deamed illegal by the US and that message passed
via the US and was detected, could the Finn, if he came to the US on
business, be arrested at the border.
