TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSISThursday, January 23, 2003BBCOA raided by FTC
The FTC summarized their complaint thusly:
Full complaint. [PDF] Order to freeze assets. [PDF] BBCOA has an extensive disclaimer which can still be found via google. (The front page of their site is down for now.) It is reproduced here in case it disappears down the Memory Hole: Custom ID(s) (CID's) Our CID cards are NOT issued by ANY government agency. ALL BBCOA ID's are Privately issued custom made ID's produced under Private Contract, in accordance with Article 1, Section 2, Clause 1, of the U.S. Constitution, exactly to client specifications. Our ID's are perfectly Lawful when used in a Lawful manner. Due to the quality and authentic look of these ID's, BBCOA cannot and will not be held liable for their use or misuse. BBCOA does not and will not knowingly make false or fake ID. 'Fake' is defined in law as a fraudulent duplication of an original. All of our ID cards are 'Originals', therefore, none of our ID's can be considered a 'fake' by any legal definition. We act solely as a printer making documents to your exact specification(s). Our ID's are custom made and do not attempt to duplicate or replicate any government issued ID cards. Our ID's are readily accepted in the private sector. All ID's meet or exceed the requirements for identification as set forth in: People v. Monroe, 12 Cal.App.4th 1174, 16 Cal.Rptr.2nd 267 (1st Dist. 1993) BBCOA cannot and will not be held liable for any use or misuse of any ID printed per your instructions. These ID's were created for those who cherish their privacy and want acceptable alternate identification. Our ID's have worked successfully for over ten years in most situations. There is no need to produce or carry fake government issued ID unless you are trying to obtain so-called government privileges and benefits. BBCOA will not knowing or willingly produce any ID card product for those under the age of 21, or, under the age of18 without notorized parental consent. NOTICE TO ALL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES: This is notice that to the best of our knowledge and belief, that BBCOA ID's do NOT violate any Law in existence. BBCOA will NOT be intimidated by phone or e-mail threats. If you feel that BBCOA is in violation of any existing Law, you may notice BBCOA in writing with a photo copy of the exact Law that is being violated, plus a copy of the implementing regulation(s). Your written notice must be on appropriate government agency stationery, personally signed with name and title. Thirty calendar days must be allowed for an appropriate response. If we find that we are in error, we will remedy the violation. We will NOT respond to phone or e-mail questions of any type. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- International Driving Permit(s) There is no government on earth that issues an International Driving or Operators Permit. They are issued under the authority of International Law and the Law of Nations in accordance with N.A.T.O., and the Convention of International Road Traffic of 19 September, 1949. It is International Law and Contract Law between countries that authorizes the issuance of any type of International Driver Permit. Contrary to popular belief, businesses like AAA, PATA and others DO NOT have a monopoly on the issuance of IDP's. These organizations are actually restricted (as legal fictions) to whom they can or cannot issue IDP's (to other legal fictions.) Having an International Driver Permit does not authorize the Holder to break the law(s) or endanger public safety. The holder of an International Driver Permit is presumed to be bound under the Convention of International Road Traffic of 19 September, 1949. That is, you must be qualified, and obey all the rules of the road in every country or state it is used. The IDP is NOT a silver bullet against traffic citations. If you happen to get a traffic citation (and deserved it), then pay the fine and stop doing whatever it was that got you the citation. The Holder of an IDP is also responsible for any property damage he or she may cause. BBCOA cannot and will not be held liable for the use or misuse of any International Driver Permit printed per your instructions. Please read and pay careful attention to the private contract statement that must be signed on the IDP/CID application form. | Posted at 02:54 | PERMA-LINK | Monday, January 20, 2003

It used to be popular to link the market to which team won the Super Bowl. What does it say about the financial situation for 2003 with two teams of pirates, the Buccaneers and the Raiders, in the Super Bowl, and the White House flying the Jolly Roger? | Posted at 16:38 | PERMA-LINK | |
