There is a lot of this bad salesmanship. Even happens from guys I actually am alright with / like / don't have torpedoes with their name on them. Willfully selling blacklisted like CC did for a year or more was mega f'd. People would buy, do configs, etc. and blamo, email wouldn't go... They...

The ServerMania dance isn't as clear as I'd like it to be. I am one of the squad members who said watch the malicious shit customers shuffle over to SM. They did and were seeing uptick over there for a long while... Not so much now.
Currently Spamhaus side there is...
Ahhh for those using ProxMox in multi tenant production (with customers).... ProxMox has a bug or feature where spoofing IPs is totally possible.
Beware if you are using it as such. Same 'feature' exists in latest release.
Oh I agree.... It's semi public that I am alright with... Acknowledge it exists, prove it to naysayers, inform the victims.
People misuse such to spam people and all sorts of the thing. Age of the data aggreGATORS.
I am not fond of dumping people in public. The customers did nothing wrong. Shame to victimize them.
Contemplating mailing every customer so they are informed.
... and yeah.. that's a lot of IPs tiger pawed for bad behavior... concerning....
Spam is becoming a secondary issue I think. Guys are moving to more malicious and diverse non email approaches to scammy and spammy. Good mix of that in there.
Ethics, that word is a loaded gun... :)
As much as I've found CC to be toilet paper worthy, Ernie has been the solo act of decency over there.
Now I am walking a loaded line here... Not going to win either side of a debate on the above as posed.
I don't find what he's (Ernie) doing there...
The Doctor of Bad Hosting companies is back :)
Greetings to my friends at EIG / Arvixe who are watching this thread and the WHT readers that come by.
Back on the Arvixe / EIG topic. They claimed their was no hack. There however was, like I've said. Since I detest MEGA CORP coverups...
What's so entirely odd about this... is that I just printed this poster like 10 days ago :)
I forget how I stumbled into it, but had never seen it prior to then.
... and it's not about American way of life or exceptionalism. Matter is about the law breaking, and rubber stamp allowing such companies to work as anti competitive bulldozers while taking money from the US.
I am all for Nike making goods in Vietnam, just make sure they are proportionally...
Oh I know we have these companies with high percentage instutional held. Calling it public is a joke though at those rates. Should be rules in the market to prevent such lack of diverse share ownership and consolidation.
That list of Dow components... that's a list of companies I won't buy...
Per Yahoo Finance: http://finance.yahoo.com/q/mh?s=EIGI+Major+Holders
% of Shares Held by All Insider and 5% Owners:
10%
% of Shares Held by Institutional & Mutual Fund Owners:
86%
% of Float Held by Institutional & Mutual Fund Owners:
95%
Not a very 'PUBLIC' traded company when 95-96%...
It should also be known that an interesting shaving of personal enrichment happened recently to the CEO of EIG, Hari Ravichandran:
The Board of Directors at EIG slashed his annual income from $750k to $200k and eliminated all cash bonuses. In return, he vests into EIGI shares quarterly, as...
Background
We covered the original Arvixe acquisition by publicly traded hosting giant Endurance International Group (NASDAQ: EIGI http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=EIGI) last November:
"On October 31, 2014, the Company acquired Arvixe, a California-based web presence provider to small and...
I am aiming for a China buyout. Or maybe Tata wants to buy some fake cloud... Other players out there who can do a deal.
Lots of chatter about IBM. IBM is on hard times. Unsure if they could actually do such a valuation deal easily these days.
