> To use a completely different example: assume
that you purchase a TV set paid by monthly instalments and
you default on them. In civilised countries that
doesn't give the seller the right to break in to your
apartment and repossess the TV, they don't get to cut
off electricity to the flat and they don't get the right
to stick big notices on your doors. The seller needs
to utilize the whatever tools are provided by the legal
system, totally regardless off how upset they are and
how righteous they might feel about their actions. Simon</div>

<p>Breach of a contract is not the same as stealing goods*, but
depending on legislation you could very well get sued for
disclosing the alleged criminals name.<br>
