Looks like they want us to turn over customer info without the subpoena, but simply with a phone call (or whatever) from an investigator. I would hope that would be just for specific accounts, and not the entire customer list. In any event, now we're going to have to at least confirm the investigator's identity, whereas currently the sub carries sufficient authority. I don't think you meant to say 'without any specific criminal charges having been filed', as subpoena'd evidence leads to charges. Chris Ranch Affinity Internet, Inc.

Worth knowing how this all falls out, methinks.
Am I understanding this correctly? Are they trying to get ISP's to release all customer information up front without any sort of legal request? I don't have a problem releasing information asked for in a subpeona, but to turn over an entire customer list without any specific criminal charges having been files is a little much.
Please tell me I'm misreading this...
