Slashdot Mirror
UK ISP Disconnecting Filesharers
bs0d3 writes "A small VPN service, Koppla, has had its service terminated by its host, Santrex Hosting Solutions. Despite actively advertising their services to be oriented toward file-sharing including torrents and XDCC, even going so far as to put 'Seedbox Hosting | An Effective Solution' in the title of their contact page, the UK based Santrex will independently act to terminate users who are thought to be distributing content that they don't own the copyright to. This is regardless of whether the infringement is done by a third party, as is the case with a VPN service such as Koppla."
Except that the one advertising "Seedbox hosting" wasn't Koppla, it was Santrex, the ones who DID the disconnecting.
You're right.
This is the worst written blog article I have ever read (hopefully, someone will read this entry and fix it). They need to qualify who's doing what instead of using ambiguous pronouns for everything. It's only once you read the rest of the blog article that you understand what happened.
Yeah. That's so damned weird, with that article! It happened to me too.
You see, I was reading this book. I read the book about 3/4 of the way through. I had no idea what the fuck would happen. There were lots and lots of loose ends and what-if's. It was only once I had read the rest of the book that I understood what happened with the plot. I just don't understand that.
I mean, it's almost as though I should take in the available information and THEN form judgments about it. But that's so odd, illogical, and unpredictable. No one would ever expect it. So anyway I thought I would write this Slashdot post to protest the absurdity. Maybe somebody will show me some sympathy and absolutely not, in any way, mock how self-important and entitled to instant everything I happen to be.
