The Internet is not owned by anyone. The only way people can make their money is by word of mouth and advertising. Other methods that I can't remember work also.

CNN is owned by Time Warner-AOL and they donated 1.6 million to Bush's 2000 campaign.\n\nCBS is owned by GE which is one of the top 10 defense contractors.\n\nCare to take a guess who they might be affiliated with?

Most likely nothing.  You can go to register.com and see when the ownership comes up for renewal.  You can also see who currently owns the site and get their contact info. Check the WHOIS.

You can go to http://samspade.org/ and do an "IP Whois" to get some info...\n\nediting ...\n\nit's not working for me now.

Noone ever owned it that I'm aware of.  There isn't really one person or group of people that created it.  It's been developing for a few decades, and is not anything like what it originally began as.  Currently the FCC makes and enforces rules for the internet.  Soon, it will be your internet access provider i.e. Comcast, AT&T, etc. who will decide how the internet works, if you can access it, and what websites you will be able to see.  You can thank Congress for that.

There is a free internet business at this company. Why don't you take a look at it?

founded a technology company that had a small division that streamed radio broadcasts of college games over the internet.  when the primary biz failed he took the streaming business and founded broadcast.com.  broadcast.com went public at like $18 per share an rapidly traded over $300 per share.  cuban was forced to accept an offer from yahoo (his board insisted- he thought he could do better on his own and rebuffed the first offer from yahoo).  after selling to yahoo, he joined yahoo's board during which time the stock tripled.  when the yahoo execs realized what a bonehead he is- they greenmailed him to leave the board and sell his stake in yahoo.  luckily for cuban- that was near the top of the bubble and the high for yhoo.\nin the end the hobby farm part of his failed business- which never generated a profit- turned him into a billionaire.

Their website address is:\n\nhttp://www.lonestarsteakhouse.com/AboutUs.asp\n\nThis contains quite a bit of info, but for more info contact the investor relations dept.  If you're writing a term paper being able to quote a live source always looks good and like you went to extra effort.\n\nPS I love Lonestar!

What state are they in and what is the correct spelling of their company name? That way I can look it up and let you know.  I deal with this all day at my work. :)\n\nIf you copy and paste this link it will give you information on the status on the business, when they started the company and if they have been reprimanded or not. Make sure you click on detail once you get to this screen.\n\nhttps://secure.utah.gov/bes/action/searchresults \n\nIf it doesn't come up just let me know and I will try it again.\n\nI would suggest the Better Business Bureau and see if there is anything listed on there as well. \nhttp://biz.yahoo.com/pz/060511/98958.html\nhttp://biz.yahoo.com/pz/060417/97471.html\n\nAlso, try these 2 press releases on the business that I found.  From what I am reading they seem pretty legitimate to me.:)

They are under investigation, as the site is thought to be a Ponzi scheme: http://www.charlotte.com/mld/charlotte/business/13846303.htm

It looks like their webite crashed, or they changed servers. All that index stuff is from a base install of a website). Is there a phone number on the receipt? I couldnt find anything at archive.com or in the google cache.\n\n-HtJ
