10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>The notion that the URS be focused on
criminal behavior, rather than rights infringement, is an intriguing one. What
a different debate we would have had if it had been proposed by the IRT with
that aim. That said, I believe that such a crime-focused URS should only allow
for certain types of complainants (law enforcement agencies; organizations that
monitor Internet fraud and abuse; etc.) to file complaints. Do we really have
time to develop such an alternative for the BC when the filing deadline is one
week from today and when many of us (including yours truly) are working on multiple
comment letters to be filed this month for clients/employers?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
