You're being vague and speculating a lot.

All I'm saying is that I don't think they are breaking US law.

Here's what you said:

A VPN is a commercial service. A commercial service is entitled to keep logs of who uses that service. They are also entitled to give those logs to law enforcement if they choose to.

That has less than nothing to do with what records an entity may keep of its own activity under US law.

I simply disagreed with this claim. I asked for you to elaborate, so I can understand how you came to this conclusion.

I do not believe they are breaking US law by not logging user activity.

Further, you're putting a personal spin on this by suggesting things like this:

I should add that tacitly encouraging illegal activity using your service is an excellent way to get new laws created.

I'm saying, VPN services openly advertising their suitability for questionable activity are going to bring the hammer down.

Those are baseless claims. How are they "tacitly encouraging illegal activity" and "advertising their suitability for questionable activity"? That's your interpretation and not at all inherent. That's like saying gun stores encourage people to shoot each other.

One moron tries to set his shoes on fire, and now millions of people are forced to take their shoes off every time they board a plane. Or for another example, "bath salts" and "research chemicals". Anyone who thinks they can openly flout the law is going to have a bad time when legislation catches up. For that matter, what makes you think the vpns haven't already been backdoored, subverted, or converted into honeypots?

You have a lot of opinions about this! That's all fine and well, but doesn't answer my question at all.
