In Response To: Re: IPF Equipment Moratorium (Eliot Feldman)

"Further, the user agrees to use this equipment as recommended. Failure to do so voids all responsibility and liability of the IPF, its agents, and affiliates, and the manufacturer of this equipment."

I'm not a lawyer but I think the wording above opens them up to all sorts of legal liability. They should use an "exculpatory clause" that basically says they aren't liable for anything. As it is, the IPF is stating they ARE liable and responsible at least in part.
