Hmmm.. I don't know of any French law that would prevent an ISP from
enforcing an Acceptable Use Policy.
This is a totally unsatisfactory response; you're obviously dealing with
an ISP that doesn't care at best, and is rogue at worst. If you're in the
mood to pursue the issue I would recommend you do the following:
1. Send a copy of the orginal mail to certsvp @
renater .
fr (CERT France).
Make sure you include the response from iway.fr. Notify them that you
believe the individual in question is in violation of 18 USC 1030 (a)(5),
not to mention Michigan Statute 752.795 Sec 4 (*Note: IANAL, and you
should check this with a legal pro)
2. cc all of iway.fr's upstream providers, to let them know that they are
providing service to an ISP that evidently couldn't care less about
customer criminal activity. To the best of my knowledge, they are as
follows:
CAIS (abuse @
cais .
com)
Genuity (security @
genuity .
net)
ebone (cert @
ebone .
net)
I'm quite sure that the activity in question is in violation of the AUP's
of all the above.
This should adjust Monsieur Cornet's attitude appropriately.
