ONE degree of separation - GTS sells advertising on tube sites - should you do business with TGP's that have GTS brokering their spots - yes, that is TWO degrees of separation from piracy. Should you do business with GTS? No, they are ONE degree separated from piracy.

you might want to add CCIA

and all its members including

google
microsoft
redhat
