2 or 3 terroristic threats to anyone @ whitehouse.gov from users of this service should shut it down rather quick.
Don't you think they get 100s of those every day? they go straight into the trash bin.


Then try it and let us know. ;)

I dunno. I've always been under the impression the Secret Service investigates all threats to the president, no matter how inane.

No true Justin. We take illicit port scanning activities very seriously. While I can not divulge our exact policy, I can assure you that lots of people have been booted off our network for port scanning activities.

A call from a backbone provider to your isp is way way different then just another isp or customer calling

It's the customers who pay for the service that matter. If they don't like it that can quit. If they try to screw it up, I say fire them, and give them bad references, so they can't get another tech job. I say it's time for the PAYING customers to get what they want for a change, instead of what some nerdy tech head wants to give them.

Umm my ISP does. I made the stupid decision to port scan UUnet and my ISP called 24hrs later saying UUnet contacted them saying i was scanning such and such ports on their network why was i doing that. I played it off like a virus must have been doing it.

This is very smart for a company wanting to attract a lot of users. This is a great service for file sharers and privacy freaks.
