Re: Such Thin-Skinned Crybabies!

Ironic that Verio is cancelling them over this, especially given that once the site was removed, The Thing was not responsible for the content.

From The Things AUP/TOS

3.Accountholder acknowledges that Internet sites and use of the Internet might consist of, include and/or provide access to images, sound, messages, text and other content and material that may be unsuitable for children and that may be objectionable to many adults.

And yet Verio let's the spammers run free and crap on our mailservers.

If you'll excuse me, I need to go to blocklists.us and add verio to my border router...

The big webhosts are always gonna have issues w/ people.

A lot of companies use them, and then a lot of spammers use them, and then - well, u get the picture.

It's like AOL.
A lot of spam originates from AOL.
It's consistent with the amount of users they have.

Actually, rarely does spam come from an AOL user that isnt just burning up "1000 free hours" CDs. AOL will nuke a spammer rather quickly, as will any responsible provider.

Verio is not one of them.

AOL's 35 million users.

35 MILLION users.

That's a lot of people.
