FYI ----- Forwarded message from ORBZ <[email protected]> ----- Mailing-List: contact [email protected]; run by ezmlm Precedence: bulk X-No-Archive: yes List-Post: <mailto:[email protected]> List-Help: <mailto:[email protected]> List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> List-Subscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> Delivered-To: mailing list [email protected] Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2002 03:20:25 +0000 From: ORBZ <[email protected]> To: [email protected] User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.22.1i X-Operating-System: Linux zeus.penguinhosting.net 2.4.18-pre7-ac3 Subject: [ORBZ-Secondary] Shutdown Here's the email that those of you with forward sight have been fearing since the inception of ORBZ. As of this moment, ORBZ is shutting down. DNS zones are going to stop resolving, the website will disappear and mail will stop working (so furthur discussion on this list probably won't work -- use NANAE). I don't want to disappear in silence like ORBS, so I'll try for as much description as possible without compromising my own position. I received an official court notice this afternoon to turn over all information relation to ORBZ accounts. This came from the 10th Judicial District court of the State of Michigan. It appears that ORBZ may be facing criminal charges for denial of service relating to the Lotus Domino issue. I was happy to try to weather any civil issues that may have come up, and I was committed to seeing it through. However, the threat of jail time is too much; I don't believe in this fight quite that much. Thank you all for all your support. I sincerely hope that someone with the goal of carrying on the mission of ORBZ pops up in another country with a less foreboding legal system. Anyone who has copies of the current zones may do with them what they wish. For those of you stuck without good spam filtering, please consider ORDB and SpamCop; they both provide excellent free solutions.
