I think there's more going on here than merely a piracy investigation, it just has that smell to it. But now that I see that RCN was acquired Nov 2020 (a pandemic acquisition) I'm back to agreeing that it's about RCN, not thi

Having spent some time living in Zurich I call bullshit on this; the streets and train stations are _deserted_ at 6am. Shops are still getting deliveries, coffee shops are still closed. No significant numbers of people - in Zurich at least
