I mean it's a Cantonal court/ruling, not a federal one, so I would believe that any ISP which doesn't have it's main office in VD doesn't need to comply. Or am I mistaken? - Press release from SwiNOG, never liked the idea and still don't, I'm a member of SwiNOG (or at least I consider myself as one) but I might not agree with what is stated in the press release, remember that we are not a legal association/company/whatever but a discussion forum based around a mailing list and bi-annual meetings.

They can only order traffic monitoring. I was told to call a lawyer at the BAKOM, which is the only authority in this matter, because blocking a website is a concept defined in the telecommunications law. > > So I called BAKOM. There I was told that they "doubt that it makes sense to block a website for futile reasons like personal offenses", but since it's a judge's order, it's better to obey (a judge actually *can* legally order to block a website!). Free "tip" from BAKOM: just block the website for 2-3 weeks, write this in a letter to Judge Dessaux, then un-block the website after that period has passed. If no further communication is received from the above mentioned judge, the matter can be considered closed. Otherwise we'd have to discuss further. > > How does that sound? > > -Manuel > > > ___________________________________________________ > Ticinocom SA - Via dei Pioppi 10 - 6616 Losone > Tel 0844 007070 - Fax 0844 007071 > http://www.ticino.com > ---------------------------------------------- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maillist-Archive: > http://www.mail-archive.com/swinog%40swinog.ch/ ---------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maillist-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/swinog%40swinog.ch/ ---------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maillist-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/swinog%40swinog.ch/
