These are coming from Mass, Cleveland, Ohio, and Virginia. We use our relays for legitimate business purposes. They are not "accidentally left open". We are not going to close them. We are going to pursue abusers civilly and criminally. The FBI assures me that it does not matter criminally that access comes from international sources. Much of the activity appears to be comming from alleged ANTI-SPAMMERs such as Chris Neill, and Alan Brown and Ron Guillemette who have been inciting attacks against us, posting to alt.2600 and advertising our service. Inciting criminal acts is a criminal act too, I'm pretty sure. We make sure to mention them prominently. --Dean Around 11:18 PM 11/21/1999 -0500, rumor has it that Kai Schlichting said: > >At 09:16 PM 11/21/99 -0500, Dean Anderson wrote: > >>Can someone send me a list of *all* AOL netblocks?
