From the Graveyard
You just read about KPN. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
XS4ALL built Technically advanced Internet access, hosting, email, privacy advocacy and digital-rights services. What became of it?
XS4ALL brought Technically advanced Internet access, hosting, email, privacy advocacy and digital-rights services to ISP. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by KPN. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside KPN today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
