Hi I quit NET4U after hearing news of this stealing bandwidth, recorded a phone call with Sahil, took the call to the herald. Which is why it was printed at all, so dont go bitching about me being involved in this. I wasn't in anyway involved in it. Quite frankly I think Sahil is ripping everyone off, including his staff. thanks, Will _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus

Ha, i wish i did. I regret not keeping one now, had i known this all would have led to a herald artical, and a post to nznog, i would have made sure i logged it. Didnt think too much of it at the time figured they were just idiots bragging about bullshit.. The only problem, there's no course of justice for this kind of thing is there? net4u will get away scott free? --- Matthew Luckie <mjl(a)luckie.org.nz> wrote: > > either way guys, word of advice.. if your ripping > > people off.. dont go bragging about it on irc.

Net4u - Stealing bandwidth etc.
by Liz Quilty 24 Mar '03

I worked for Sahil when he first started out. I left within 6 months because he didnt know anything about what the hell he was doing and kept fucking things up majorly. He was 15 at the time. I know of several other 'employees' whom did work and also did not get paid. His servers were rediculasly insecure and badley configured most of the time and he often made friends of other ISP's and tried getting customer databases. He would intentionally poach Users. Good that it has cought up with him ;] Liz

Net4u - Stealing bandwidth etc.

> It may have been an open web proxy only, not capable of > abusing SMTP or IRC. Quote from the Herald article: "He goes on to say that Net4U services, including his dial-up and server co-location customers, his "home link" and his "KaZaA" ... were all operated with stolen bandwidth for a "six-month" period." That reference to KaZaA would intimate that it wasn't merely web. Of course we possibly shouldn't believe the word of someone who'd stoop to stealing bandwidth. -- David Clarke Tech :wq #include <disclaimer.h>

a staff member from net4u was bragging on irc the other day about the jetstream bandwidth issue. what they are doing is authenticating jetstream starter users (fastip) as jetstream users (fastipdirect). I think this is most likely a screwup on telecom/net4u's behalf.. perhaps their account manager set it up this way for a reason? perhaps net4u ask for jetstream ports instead of jetstream starter? either way guys, word of advice.. if your ripping people off.. dont go bragging about it on irc. I believe the staff member in question was only 14 years old. What possible use could he have been? He was also in the news recently, related to the captain bob spam fiasco.. cheers __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
