The interesting thing about your water supply is that it's the most obvious method of intentional contamination / infection, either by people who for some reason hate your country or even by your own government (believe it or not). By that, I do not mean 'normal' bacteria. I mean bio warfare & other inhumane activities. I'm not so sure that $1000 water filter will protect you from that though..

an adult carries about 3 kilogram bacteries, you'd be dead if you wouldn't.
On a clean hand you have about 50 million bacteries, a handshake will transfer about 50.000 of them.

you won't get better and deeper answers than what you got here :-)
but of course it would be nice to see what they come up with, so try a remembering email if it takes too long.

Give them some time tho, your question is hard to answer by any support department, as it supposes them
to comment the firm's strategy and policy concerning absurdistic legal actions of third parties...not something a support department likes to deal with without
consulting with people who are more qualified to talk about it...

I thought you just had to "Duck and Cover"? :D

Interesting the point made about lead in the water supply. In the UK, nearly all water pipes leading to houses used to be lead! Combine that with asbestos walls & ceilings and lead in petrol (much less nowadays than there used to be), it's a wonder any of us Brits are still alive.

Perhaps there are very small traces of lead used in the dye used to colour the cables' sheaths, hence the warning?

wohohoh....That`s a problem we had back in the seventies. But we were lucky, back in those days there was enough money there to solve it. Ok -it took a dekade, but at least there are only a few builidings left not fitting todays standard.
