[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-17144760 posted: In a statement, President Barack Obama outlined a "consumer privacy bill of rights". The White House said internet users should have the right to limit the context in which information was collected, should be allowed to correct information and should have the right to transparency in privacy policies. Companies like Google and Facebook have signed on to develop guidelines based on the "bill of rights", enforceable by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC). "American consumers can't wait any longer for clear rules of the road that ensure their personal information is safe online," Mr Obama said. "As the internet evolves, consumer trust is essential for the continued growth of the digital economy." I don't know about working with Google, but I'm pretty excited that Facebook will be in on designing effective privacy rights and policies for consumer protections! -----signature----- I radiate more heat than light.

And how is increasing their profit margin on a private service that you are not forced to use an issue? -----signature----- You win ACF, dude - Osmenthe BT is usually right - Onslaught i think we need more BT on page 1 - FighterUSAF Yep, BT is right - Aerlinthian Got guns & ammo?
