Re: Time Warner bad / VPS recommendations

I agree that starting a business may be problematic but I am not sure 
this would be true for a non-profit in the US.

Does anyone know if US non-profits are required to log connection 
information?  I help several businesses (including a large company) and 
non-profits maintain their websites, networks, etc. and am not aware of 
any requirement to log this kind of information.

Thanks,
Matt
