Neo-Nazis select opponents for massive defamation and forgery and then back it with an equally massive campaign of complaints to their victim's ISP claiming that the victim is aggressing on them. They hope that the corporate structure will roll over on their complaints and they're often correct. This worked with RoadRunner who pulled my service and we've just heard they're doing the same thing to the Belgian mega-site antifa.net.
I hope you can write a short protest note to RoadRunner about their actions. I have prepared two "articles" for the protest against both the fascist actions and RoadRunner's response. The intro is titled "Cyberstalking New York After September 11" and is available via <http://www.anti-fascism.org/page-special.html>. The "Letter to RoadRunner Security" is available via <http://www.anti-fascism.org/special/cyberstalking/letter-rr-security.html>. At present it would be incredibly beneficial if you could write a protest note to RoadRunner, particularly if you informed RoadRunner of your political background, organizational links, activism and other connections on the net. RoadRunner indicated that took their actions, in part, to avoid bad publicity from the neo-Nazis; our protests must convince them of the mistake they made! But your protest need not take more than five minutes to write and should be addressed to: "Greg Powell -- Security RR-NYC" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You can probably just cut and paste this into your email program. It is crucial that we stop the fascists. Corporate America has a history of accommodating itself to the far-right; if the fascists succeed here they will certainly use their tactic against other activists! The corporations embrace the net only for billions of dollars in profits; they are threatened when people like us use it for our own political work. It would be even better if you can inform your various co-activists about the events and get them to send RoadRunner a similar protest note. Thanks for you concern!
