And you missed the point about crime; I was wondering if the actions of the investors is illegal in Switzerland, since it seems like it is illegal in Germany. If what the investors from Germany were doing in Switzerland is not illegal in Switzerland than the actions of the thief selling the data has absolutely nothing to do with reporting the criminal actions of a company as you claimed. It's theft and greed, nothing to do with criminal companies. Companies do not have to comply with the laws of countries they aren't operating in.

Finally, you've lost on a Godwin infraction.

CR
First of all, we have the same laws here as Germany does, and my own government is doing exactly what germany does.

Secondly, what are these "investors" you're talking about...? When people hide their money away in swiss bank accounts, then it is because of criminal activity. There simply is no other reason. Putting them there isn't a standard procedure, it's to hide money earned from drug sales, bribes, tax evasion, etc etc.

Like I've said a billion times now, if no crime hasa been committed then the data is useless, as the government would know about it already.

One of the pillars of a free market is for everyone to compete under the same rules. Tax evasion screws that up since only a minority do it, and thus gain an extremely unfair advantage. it's actually like a government hand-out, and I honestly can't see why you've suddenly started supporting government handouts, CR...
