Recently my personal system has been attacked by someone from the IRC channel #nanog on EFNet. This along with multiple instances of showing/providing pornography to minors as well as defamation of character/slander as well as numerous other civil and criminal items have really plagued my past 3 months. I think it's time to look into fighting back.
Other than to warn others of the pending danger of dealing with the immature people found within that channel, I would love to know what all legal recourse I have in this matter. I have a lawyer but I am not quite ready to sue.
Why Nick Catalano was banned from #nanog: <NickCatal> dgold: Dsl works via ATM, thats layer3 <NickCatal> it's layer4 in the way that it uses POS instead of ATM standard.. <NickCatal> FDDI can only support up to, maby, T1 speed.. <NickCatal> t1 = 1464kbps.. <NickCatal> I always thought FDDI was frame relay.. <NickCatal> OC-192 over POIP is as dumb as you get it.. <NickCatal> if this business works out.. the first thing I am doing is having my engineers give me some way of making a layer 4 nap.. even if it's pure bullshit.. and then I am presening it @ Nanog <gavroche> DS3 IS NOT FIBER || <NickCatal> gavroche: of course it is.. <NickCatal> UUNet has the world's worst designed network <NickCatal> I go on the UUNet backbone, and I'm like.. where's the core!? <NickCatal> I think we can make money offering gig-e at the cost of a T1 <NickCatal> naa.. my job in the new company is to make ideas and provide a public face to the company.. a 14 year old selling enterprise hosting looks good on Leno <NickCatal> Cogent and InterNAP can be mixed and merged.. Cogent didn't fail. Cogent has almost no expenses. it costs next to nothing to be Cogent.. <NickCatal> they own their network.. they own their equipment.. they don't pay for it.. there are no leased lines.. <NickCatal> they most likely don't pay for transit.. <NickCatal> I am about to call my lawyer about this and file lawsuits against 95% of the #nanog room to find out who has taken advantage of my system <NickCatal> ...also with logs of everything said in #nanog I have over 50 cases of showing pornography to a minor..
