Re: Interesting Point of view - Russian police and RIPE accused of aiding RBN

* a. harrowell:

It ought to be superfluous to point out that the only effective action taken against RBN was by the Internet community in getting all their upstreams to null route them. As is blindingly obvious, SOCA would never have been granted a warrant by the Russians.

Ugh, in reality, they needed a warrant from the Metropolitan Police (which could have been equally problematic).
