Plus I’m largely indifferent to it. On one hand, I’m a firm believer in a free and open Internet. But on the other hand, it’s so easy to hide your online activity that I have a hard time feeling sorry for anyone who gets caught up in the drag net. Anyone who gets a notice from us is completely and utterly apathetic about online privacy and it’s astonishing to be just how lazy people really are. I only have a few hundred users, so definitely not a representative sample size, but in all my time here we’ve only had a single repeat offender.

I'm very sorry to read that, as an ISP, you have to comply with a para-judicial process that puts you in charge of censorship. I'd like to think that you'd have some margin to let these "copyright holders" fuck-off when it comes to your mere-pipe services. But I guess it depends on the jurisdiction you're operating under. Providing IP services and CATV are two different things that should not be liable one to another. If you have any right to give them a finger, please, on behalf of our community, give it to them. If not, please work harder on denouncing those indecent contracts. Best regards, -- Jérôme Nicolle +33 6 19 31 27 14

If you run a whois server and link it from your RIRs or create a custom "DMCA Compliance" POC in the RIR listings then you could maybe list that sort of thing there, but most address maintainers do neither, so by default whatever address is listed on those net block records with the RIR seems appropriate enough to me. There's no other established protocol for determining an appropriate contact (like calling the associated phone number and asking, or trying to determine your web url and browing that site for it, or something else much more involved.) If there should be a different protocol established for that, then we need to figure it out and document that and get a critical mass of reporters to buy in to it.

It doesn't work like that though. I can't just bitbucket DMCA takedown requests because I also provide people with cable TV service. That means I have content contracts and these contracts are all very specific about what I need to do to process DMCA takedown requests.

Looking for a CBS Interactive Contact
Can someone in Tier 3 level support from CBS Interactive please contact me at neil-johnson at uiowa dot edu? (For some reason I can't subscribe that address to this list). (Yes, I'm a real network engineer at the University) We are having reach-ability issues with CBS All Access content at the University of Iowa. I've tried reaching out to your support teams via your web page and by phone, but never get a follow-up response. If you need some incentive to respond, your losing CBS All Access subscribers in the dorms of a Big 10 institution because they can't access your content from some of our networks. Thanks! - Neil -- Neil Johnson
