Re: Global Crossing & Hurricane Electric looked other way ?? You are obviously not a landlord then because the rights and obligations of such do not extend to you investigating the activities of a tenant nor can you just up and throw someone out. State laws vary obviously, but for the most part evicting someone isnt done easily one afternoon and is generally a pretty long road that is in favor of the tenant, not the landlord.
In this case if the ISP's were aware of it then they should not have changed anything and gotten the proper authorities involved to investigate and collect evidence so the owners can be convicted. Otherwise they are simply going to go find another host and the process starts all over.
During that investigation the ISP's should be looked at as well to see if they were turning a blind eye to it. Not that I believe ISP's should be anything more than a dumbpipe, but if they are fully aware that they are being utilized for illegal activities, then they SHOULD be required to take the proper steps to aide authorities or brought to justice for not doing so. |

Would the city water company be held responsible for providing city water to a chemical manufacturer that does environmental pollution into their backlot if some hippies told the city water company that the chemical manufacturer is using the water for illegal purposes? |
