U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation agents have raided a Dallas ISP,
knocking the company and almost 50 of its clients offline.

The early morning Thursday raid closed down the operations of Core IP
Networks, which operated out of two floors of a Telx collocation facility
at 2323 Bryan Street in Dallas. The raid had to do with the activities of a
former customer, according to Matthew Simpson, Core IP's CEO. "The FBI is
investigating a company that has purchased services from Core IP in the
past," he wrote in a note [1] posted to a Google Sites page. "This company
does not even collocate with us anywhere, much less 2323 Bryan Street
Datacenter."

He did not name the company that is allegedly at the center of the FBI
investigation.

FBI spokesman Mark White confirmed that agents had executed a search
warrant at the 2323 Bryan Street address on Thursday, but declined to
comment further on the matter.
