OT: spam from Globix to ARIN POCs

  • From: Kai Schlichting
  • Date: Mon Feb 25 12:40:46 2002

If there's something I really hate it's a bunch of jerks in the marketing
department that are so desperate to get attention, they'll even repeat the
mistakes of at least one other organization we all know of - and do so
FOR THE SECOND TIME - and annoy operational people at their competitor's
(that'd be the NANOG readers), customers and non-customers alike.

As far as their "Copyright" on this piece of UCE is concerned, they can stick
that where the sun don't shine: There is no inherent right to control
'distribution' of works distributed in an indiscriminate and unsolicited
manner: the 2 reproduced UCE/UBE below have key data censored for no other
purpose than making it completely useless for getting Globix's message
before an even bigger audience.

ARIN board: you may want to consider changes to the charter to have sanctions
against members that send UCE/UBE to ARIN POCs. There is nothing that gets
members' attention as quick as a $5000 "special administrative fee" for
unauthorized use of the membership list, even such a public one as the
ARIN whois server. Freely accessible doesn't mean free for all and all
purposes.

Globix abuse desk people: I know your pain.

And on another note, that little spamming jerk from Qwest's NYC sales office,
NAME REMOVED, should start finding himself a new job while there is time.
And don't count on collecting unemployment.

Gee, I can be a real jerk on some days, and well: this is such a day.

bye,Kai

According to a recent Jupiter Executive Survey, 34 percent of companies handle hosting and infrastructure responsibilities internally - 
most of these companies overestimate the competitive advantages of hosting internally. This seminar will review the common "Pain Points" 
of hosting internally and look at how some companies have confronted and answered these questions.

Topics to be presented for discussed will be:

What are the costs of outsourcing hosting and infrastructure needs as opposed to fulfilling them in-house?How do companies trap themselves into over spending. How can they correct avoidable mistakes?What criteria can companies rely on to select the best hosting and infrastructure vendor?How can you plan for business continuity as a hedge against unforeseen downtime?


The theme of the event will be how Globix and IBM combine to provide solutions to challenges. This seminar will also introduce the Globix/IBM
Partnership to attendees and show how Globix services combined with IBM products can meet business needs.
