an absolutely ludicrous amount of hacking comes from dial-up accounts from this ISP. They care not a whit when we have attempted to track down the source of these attempts, and have largely ignored any attempt to investigate or follow on their customers' abuses. I realize dial-up accounts are notoriously difficult to track/shutdown, as people float from one to the other, but these guys make zero effort.
I'm surprised anybody got anything useful out of them in the first place. I'm all for privacy, but I'd like to think that someone running crappy DOS scripts from a dial up account would be somewhat accountable...
