I met an admin at 1und1 through a mutual friend. When I found out the
admin worked at 1und1 I asked him about abuse/fraud/etc as I was curious
what a fellow admin was seeing. The fellow seemed completely ignorant of
the fact that their services were purchased for the purposes of
committing fraud or abusing others' systems. The topic wasn't even on
his radar. I guess as long as the money keeps coming VPS providers have
no problem turning a blind eye to what their clients do.

You know that we really should worry.. Given the announcement today on
the P2P potential exploit, and the really big botnets out there, if we
can't take down a botnet with less than 1000 members (down to 168) in
a timely manner...
Even with all the back channel connections here, and directly with
CERT's, providers, and other agencies.. it is a shame that such a
dangerous botnet is still running after a month .. ;(
And of course, the Digital Ocean take down's challenge everyone in the
threat detection and security space.. but it isn't just them.. other
abuse departments seem to either not be interested, or unable to
address it... (Hey, we are trying to reach the customer.. all the
while damage continues to be done.. )
