Wasn't it UUnet that was SHUTTING OFF customers when the whole DDOS thing was going on? That's kinda what I thought..

It doesn't take long for the vultures to swoop in: I just picked up a voice mail from a UUnet salesperson that says "... I saw that y'all are at AboveNet and I'm fairly sure that you are aware of what happened yesterday with the denial of service attacks and I was wondering if y'all might be looking to go with somebody else that way you aren't shut down and you don't lose business ..." I must have missed the UUnet press release that stated that UUnet will not be affected by any DDOS attacks. Or maybe it is in a document covered by an NDA :-) -mark
