Turkey data protection laws: http://uk.practicallaw.com/7-520-1896# Main points: people must be informed that their data is being collected by the 3rd party and they must give their consent (if they are under 18 then their parents must give their consent), and people whose data is collected can...

What's your opinion on people who create accounts on several forums just to post something like this? :P

Would that be the same bitter dickhead who was threatening to ruin a customer's life on WHT recently, but then couldn't deal with the pressure and had to go take a nap? :P As for FraudRecord, they should screen potential members (make sure they're old enough to sign a contract, are a registered...

It really doesn't matter which individual at the legal entity Green Value Hosting Inc submitted the report because the company is responsible (and liable) for the actions of its workers regardless of whether it was submitted by employee/worker A, B, or C...respondeat superior...

To also be fair, they run their own network and PeeringDB shows average traffic levels of 20-50 Gbps so them offering 100TB plans is completely different than little JonnyGVH offering 100TB plans on rented servers that he couldn't afford to pay overages on if someone actually tried to use 100TB...

We agree on something, although I wouldn't call them a ponzi scheme.  It's more of a pay to play "you pay us and all you need to do to maintain an A rating is respond to complaints, you don't even need to resolve them satisfactorily".  I think they should lose their nonprofit status and be...

Where is "Picatsway" [sic]?

Two reports from 2014, a FR search by name and a FR search by the email address listed on GVH's WHOIS. Not just publishing it, but also giving ownership of it to Harzem d/b/a FraudRecord. FR TOS: "You acknowledge and agree that all information submitted to FraudRecord servers become the...

Harzem is in Turkey but FraudRecord and its database are hosted on a server in the US.  If a case was brought in the US, FraudRecord would be protected by the ISP immunity laws (47 230( c )(1)) In the US falsely accusing someone of a crime is one of the 4 categories of defamation that fall...

This is why I have a low opinion of FraudRecord: they need to screen the providers they allow to join better and they should permanently ban any provider who makes any false report  (my main objection to FraudRecord though is that I'm in the same camp as TRUSTe (see their position on hashes...

They removed the BBB accredited logo from their site recently after a customer opened up a BBB complaint about it on January 2nd Those LET users and mods are clearly in the wrong because they are not following the correct procedure to unsubscribe! Both Mr Biloh and Mr Fabozzi were very...

 EL is the ISO alpha-2 language code for the Greek language (alpha-3 is ELL) ISO country code is GR (alpha-2) or GRC (alpha-3)

The 100TB thing isn't nearly as bad an idea as him giving @ greenvaluehost email addresses to his affiliates/HackForum skids who are advertising GVH on HackForums .  Giving out company email addresses to affiliates (especially hack forum skids) is a security nightmare just waiting to happen...

what a perfect match! not even going to comment on the 100TB for $4 part of it

No, it's not OK because #1 it's a violation of ICANN rules and #2 using fake WHOIS isn't the brightest  thing to do if you have a "business" because it could lead to the domain being suspended or even deleted.  If you want to hide your identity or address (which you shouldn't if you're running a...

I'll just throw this link in: a unixbench comparison of VPS Classic 1 (1GB, 1 core, €1.99) vs  RunAbove Sandbox M (2GB, 1 core, $2.50) vs RunAbove Steadfast Resources S (2GB, 1 core, $9.00) https://www.abyssproject.net/2014/11/instances-run-above-vs-vps-classic-ovh/ Sandbox 2214 <--gettting...

The x2go remote desktop on debian 7  tutorial was mildly amusing. tutorial writer:     //facepalm    

Obviously a youngster, I thought we started the virtualized server hosting discussion with RoseHosting, Linux vServer, and Pentium III's 14 years ago. :P Using SolusVM, which has failed to keep up with changing demands, will become a liability and a good way to drive potential customers to your...

No ethernet cables here...my Internets is a series of tubes. It was 800 Gbps a few years ago but additional capacity has probably been added since then.  According to this submarine cable industry report (54 page .pdf), the total capacity of all submarine cable between North and South America...
