It seems more criminal activity by long time RIAA/MPAA employees BayTSP is causing strife within the netsphere, no doubt as intended.
http://www.p2pnet.net/story/17026BayTSP, has been quietly working away in the background, largely unmentioned.
Founder and CEO Mark Ishikawa has called the corporate music industry inspired DMCA a “flawed piece of legislation”, but nothing loath, one of BayTSP’s principal activities involves creeping around online looking for alleged copyright infringements, and then issuing DMCA takedown notices to the ISP hosting the content in question.
Unfortunately thats not all they do, this is a letter from an Australian internet user who received a fake down notice for sharing his holiday movie with his brother.
I note that additional to the afore described attempted intimidation your company through and by notifying its associated entities are also instituting a DDOS (denial of Service) against IP numbers that have been selected by your servers as potentially guilty of file sharing.
Instituting a DDOS attack against IP numbers is not a legal remedy under any court system that I am aware of, be it American (9th District) or Australian (Federal).
This definitely is contrary to Australian law and I hereby instruct you that should any similar occurrence repeat, then I shall in the first instance file a complaint with the Australian Telecommunications Ombudsman, the Australian Trade Practices, followed by seeking injunctive relief from yourselves repeating aforesaid criminal activity. The injunction will quite specifically request relief from repetitious criminal activities affecting not only my IP number but several IP numbers throughout Australia and falling under the guidelines of RICO activity. Although Rico actions are not recognized in this country, the court allows a wide latitude with the wording especially if informed that the injunctive relief sought will be duplicated in foreign courts and is being sought as a formality. You are on notice that the service company that will be filing for injunctive relief is a Nevada Corp in good standing and costs orders will be applied for in your jurisdiction.
If after this request and the granting of injunctive relief, should your company then continue to Ping Flood Australian addresses without specific permission from the ISP’s or the recipients all of whom are being financially damaged by your illegal actions, I shall have a quick whip around the ISPs to see who would be interested in taking on a class action against yourselves for this bandwidth theft and believe me, although I have retired from running large multi-national ISP’s, the chap that instituted the first international TCP-IP connection in Australia in September 1983, still has some “mates” in the industry.
I get the idea this chap is hot under the collar from firstly being falsely accused by these moronic characters and further from the theft of his bandwidth, but what can you expect when BayTSP likeley charge for their services by the letter and this guy likley made them 50 cents
