I would have been fully happy with that, while I never expected a "here is
all the info" But a simple, "Well keeps log files untill it arrives" etc...

Instead of a, you'll have to subpeona us for that information Thanks you
for calling @home *click*

I'm curious - how many ISPs hold to this kind of policy of being tight-lipped

Personally, I'm kind of glad to see this response from @home. I know I would
want to see an ISP I used do the same thing if confronted by The Law. Maybe
that's just the Bill of Rights lover in me.

Having said that, it sucks that they're forcing you to get the lawyers and the
cops involved. I'd often prefer to see things handled on an informal basis of
professional courtesy. Especially when real damage is done such as in your case.

We won't release information but, we certainly will freeze log files and
perhaps even thump the customer on the head with the "Bright Platinum
Baseball Bat of Truth" until the subpoena does arrive.
