China, Russia, U.S. To Build 100MBps Network

prostoalex writes "Gloriad (Global Ring Network for Advanced Applications Development), a scientific data network, will unite academic institutions in China, Russia and the United States with a 100 MBps link. National Center for Supercomputing Applications received a $2.8 mln grant from NSF, and both Russia and China will match this amount to contribute to network build-up. Later this year, as the Associated Press article notes, a new plan will be launched to move the international network to 10 GBps capacity."

    Ya know, while I have the attention of the Slashdot crew, I figure I might as well ask for any information. He seems to be located in Jakarta, and he's sending email from hundreds of compromised machines he's got around the world. The only 'fixed' thing pointing to him is:

    www.m3k.biz

    You can see all of his random, illegal, shady businesses in the subdirectories he's promoting. WHAT can I DO to shut this guy down??
