    GreenValueHost becoming ColoCrossing, dumping providers, etc.

    Well all I can say is based on public antics and sales tactics from GVH in recent past, they are cool with the whole IPs for cash racket - no justification required.  That would make them a cookie cutter follower of the CC/CVPS school of dirtball sales/marketing.  Not saying at this point that...

    GreenValueHost becoming ColoCrossing, dumping providers, etc.

    Since GreenValueHost gets so much coverage and is assumed to have some clients, everyone should beware of the following that went out via email and was forwarded to me by a customer. Dear Valued Client, We are deeply saddened to inform you today of an unfortunate mishap that has occurred...

    Dear Spamhaus, why can't you group providers right?

    Wow!  Unsure where Spamhaus sourced this from, but this guy, yeah... Free speech... I love how companies, commerce driven, usually limited liability, intentionally divided from a soul infected human, claim at law and in public courts of opinion the concept that they have "freedom of speech"...

    Iraq 2014 - Viet Nam 1975

    KEY WORDS: PROPERTY INVESTED BORROWED MONEY. War is a racket.   It's not a sustainable economic investment.  It has blippy gains/profits, sort of as needed/as consumed.  Otherwise you are just extracting fear dollars from a spanked public and the leadership that fleeces them.  Only can arm so...

    Iraq 2014 - Viet Nam 1975

    I really have a hard time buying the idea that the US Military was looting planefuls of gold out of Viet Nam and antiquities out of Iraq.  At the scale the US government operates at, neither would be worth their time. No, the US was in both to save the people from....? We were there to save the...

    Completely anonymous VPS

    DigitalOcean, really?  They are requesting ID docs?  Under what conditions/terms/etc.? If so, I am promptly cancelling all services I have with them.

    Dear Spamhaus, why can't you group providers right?

    ... and back to the original idea behind this post.... Spamhaus WAS NOT counting ChicagoVPS and probably some other companies abuse under CC, even though they solely use CC for IPs and network. Well, been looking recently and the ChicagoVPS items seem to be filed now under CC, properly. Which...

    Dear Spamhaus, why can't you group providers right?

    Unsure why the range isn't in my database... Bug in code... SBL214220 107.172.0.0/15 velocity-servers.net 25-Feb-2014 10:39 GMT snowshoe range Now, this is at least the second /15 listed by Spamhaus since I started...

    Dear Spamhaus, why can't you group providers right?

    Did I see that range listed by Spamhaus?  No.  But my logging only goes back a few months.  March 11th to be exact.... Wait... I see it... I think

    Dear Spamhaus, why can't you group providers right?

    Now they are up to #4 on Spamhaus' list :)

    Completely anonymous VPS

    Even though stuff is very leaky, doesn't mean folks should abandon the concept and run wide open. It's time for more disposable computing instances in hand and on the desktop.  Where the browser is freshly cleaned, masked...  Where Windows isn't running... Where things come by default as...

    AtlantaNAP to be sold to zColo (Zayo)

    Dark fiber matters because the installation and fiber is already there.  It's basic small dollars to light dark strands, slap the router and other network stuff in place and now running more bandwidth. If dark fiber or lit isn't available somewhere, well good luck getting service for business...

    Completely anonymous VPS

    The topic is rather necessary - big picture... Especially today in light of the never ending data disclosure (unintended) by companies. We cannot forget the McMega corps who make a whole profitable business just on repackaging customer info and selling it to the worst marketing/sales/whatever...

    Well I see no reason to erase the internet... I mean if someone steps up and runs a scam by me, regardless of who they say they are (Barack Oblama), I probably am going to say something to someone. If he fellow the OP pointed to didn't do such, then someone arguably is in control of his...

    Bring on the 6TBs!

    Bigger drives, bigger failures. Still makes sense to use both technologies at the same time, where budget allows ;)  and not just for caching.

    Iraq 2014 - Viet Nam 1975

    John McCain should have been court martialed and sent to Leavenworth for his antics when enlisted.   Him being a POW, meh, I really am not buying it. I know he totalled no less than two birds and in retarded ways, while not in combat. I mean McCain's father was who again :) ? " During the...

    Iraq 2014 - Viet Nam 1975

    Vietnam was about looting their gold by the transport plane full. These modern wars? I swear we are stealing ancient artifacts in Iraq and contaminating the ancient cities there to keep something out of there and I am not thinking insurgents. But, it all comparatively ends there. Vietnam was...

    CentralNic acquires InternetBS

    I am ahh confused. Who is CentralNic?   Are they known in the UK?  Target the European market or something? I bailed, mostly on internet.bs a while back when they had issues accepting PayPal payments.  Unsure how I feel other than more consolidation.

    How to apply as a volunteer for a provider?

    Yeah it's mega hard to get into places... Especially when and where many of these companies don't have staff (i.e. sole operators and two guys named Moe). I'll echo @expertvm on this one.  Dealing with a regional company where you is the ticket and they tend to provide real internships, work...
