- The time is 20:38 and I've just got off the phone. It was Enzo, the sysop at Sky
- Tower. He got busted today. The cops came to his place at around 7 am with
- a warrant (a year old!) and took all his equipment, Amiga, monitors,
- modems, his PC, dat, etc. and took him to the police station.
-
- It has not been clarified exactly what the charges will be, but it's likely
- they know about the sale of DAT-tapes. But as usual, the cops might not be
- too smart (we've seen that before) so maybe nothing much happens.
-
- As a user you shouldn't worry. Even though they might find your handle or
- maybe even a phonenumber (dunno how) they can't really do you anything,
- since there is no law against calling a bulletin board service.
-
- Enzo did not know anything about when/if he gets his equipment back, so he
- couldn't say when/if he would be back and running.
-
- Therefore I suggest you stop calling Sky Tower as it won't be online for
- quite a while - if ever.
-
- A shame, since it was - whether you liked it or not - the best all-round
- bbs in dk. Nowhere else could you find such a good collection of software
- for all major formats.
-
- I will personally miss the board since I have been calling it for 3-4
- years, and Enzo has become a good friend of mine. Let's wish him luck on
- this one, ok?
-
- By the way, he's not the only one to get busted. He managed to get some
- information stating that they do have the numbers of several danish boards.
- And Amiga-only boards are NO LONGER SAFE! So take care, perhaps keeping a
- low profile for a while.
