Comment Bad Analogy (Score 1) 555

I think you would find a very negative reaction if you set up a Water bottling business at your house and started selling the water you get from utility company. Setting up hosting is similar in that you are using resources not intended to be used and are "selling" something that is not yours.

Setting up a Charging station and charging people to charge up their cars using electricity at your residential rates would get you the same response.

The Unlimited Data is a false promise, but I don't see how it has anything to do with Net Neutrality.

I don't know because I have not looked, but I'm sure that Google has a "Business Plan" for those that want to host just like Cox has a business hosting package.

United States Begins Flying Stealth Bombers Over South Korea 567

skade88 writes "The New York Times is reporting that the United States has started flying B-2 stealth bomber runs over South Korea as a show of force to North Korea. The bombers flew 6,500 miles to bomb a South Korean island with mock explosives. Earlier this month the U.S. Military ran mock B-52 bombing runs over the same South Korean island. The U.S. military says it shows that it can execute precision bombing runs at will with little notice needed. The U.S. also reaffirmed their commitment to protecting its allies in the region. The North Koreans have been making threats to turn South Korea into a sea of fire. North Korea has also made threats claiming they will nuke the United States' mainland."

Comment SPF-SOFTFAIL = Supid (Score 1) 187

We actually mark on SPF checks on the outside but accept them. They then pass through a spam quarantine system which if they are SPF-FAIL or SPF-SOFTFAIL they are quarantined. Users can release them if they want to but they have to check their "Junk" reports to look for them or go to the portal itself. They have up to 15 days to release them or they are gone. However since these are a policy based rule, they can't white list senders that are messed up. Doesn't take long for a major vendor to learn they need to do email right.

Biggest problem is people with SPF records ending with ~ALL which basically means here is where we think our mail is coming from but if it is from somewhere else don't block it. Kind of stupid to not know where your email is being sent from. Especially annoying when a known company is setup like that that gets used as a phishing attack which is why we now quarantine SPF-SOFTFAIL now.
