spot - fucking - on. it's not unreasonable to consider them attacking small affiliates FIRST to get them to plea to both rack up some 'prosecutions' as well as possibly use them to get to the larger sponsors.

SPONSORS - TAKE CARE OF YOUR AFFILIATES. make them sign a non disclosure, get their ID, ask for a cash bond deposit or something. but don't think that the feds are going to be happy with knocking out a few TGP operators. they will come for you. this isn't a 'nice thing to do'. if affiliates are the front line of the attack, and they go down, that means you could be next.
