I was leafing through the new terms of service from my ISP, and lookie what I came up with: .... stuff deleted * Posting private e-mail to any newsgroup or mailing list without the explicit approval of the sender is strictly prohibited. * Impersonating another user or otherwise falsifying one's user name in e-mail or any post to any newsgroup or mailing list is strictly prohibited. * We reserve the right to take whatever actions we deem appropriate in enforcing these policies, including the ones below. We also reserve the right to change these policies without prior notice at any time. ... stuff deleted The actions we take may include account suspension or termination. We do not issue any credits for accounts cancelled due to policy violations. The second point make me wonder if NymServers are logal to use with my service (PSInet, Interramp) ---------- Brian Gorka Key fingerprint = ED 7D 78 7E 95 E8 05 01 27 01 A1 74 FA 4B 86 53

IANAL, but I don't see where using your own nym is "falsifying one's user name". Using someone else's nym would be. - -- Roy M.

That's forgery, not using a nym. You're likely safe. -- Sameer Parekh Voice: 510-601-9777x3 Community ConneXion, Inc. FAX: 510-601-9734 The Internet Privacy Provider Dialin: 510-658-6376 http://www.c2.org/ (or login as "guest") sameer@c2.org
