Hi, can you people sit down and realize that you are turning mice into elephants here ?
If you buy a domain from a cheap provider for a $ a month, you can't expect them to have a legal team on call for you 24/7. They have just some person in the noc, skilled enough and trained enough to maintain their stuff and that's it if you are lucky. They get a complaint, they check, the stuff looks illegal, they pull the plug and notify you. Nobody payed them enough money to try and track you down first, contact a lawyer and get legal advice etc. If he looks at his contract he will find out that it was completely legal and to be expected. That you don't have a decent hotline number and it takes 1 hour to get things back online, well, you get what you pay for. If there have been full account names and passwords posted there, they did the right thing btw., from my point of view. There are other ways to do "full-disclosure". All this has nothing to do with "freedom" except his "freedom of choice of provider" which he still has... -sm
