Our ISP is not responsible for OUR content. This has been the case for a long time and upheld in court repeatedly (see below). More recently, the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DCMA) specifically states in Title II, Sec. 202, 512:
 
"(a) TRANSITORY DIGITAL NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS -- A service provider shall not be liable for monetary relief, or, except as provided in subsection (j), for injunctive or other equitable relief, for infringement of copyright by reason of the provider's transmitting, routing, or providing connections for, material through a system or network controlled or operated by or for the service provider, or by reason of the intermediate and transient storage of that material in the course of such transmitting, routing, or providing connections, if-
``(1) the transmission of the material was initiated by or at the direction of a person other than the service provider;
``(2) the transmission, routing, provision of connections, or storage is carried out through an automatic technical process without selection of the material by the service provider;
``(3) the service provider does not select the recipients of the material except as an automatic response to the request of an- other person;
``(4) no copy of the material made by the service provider in the course of such intermediate or transient storage is main- tained on the system or network in a manner ordinarily acces- sible to anyone other than anticipated recipients, and no such copy is maintained on the system or network in a manner ordi- narily accessible to such anticipated recipients for a longer pe- riod than is reasonably necessary for the transmission, routing, or provision of connections; and
``(5) the material is transmitted through the system or net- work without modification of its content.

Traffic Data
Each time a visitor comes to the Dataoutages.com site, information is collected to improve the overall quality of the site. Dataoutages.com collects the visitor.s domain name/IP Address (e.g., whether the user is logged on from netscape.com or yale.edu or 255.255.255.0), referral data (e.g., we record the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to an Dataoutages.com site), and browser/platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform).

Dataoutages.com also counts, tracks, and aggregates each visitors activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at Dataoutages.com. Dataoutages.com may share this information, on an aggregated basis only, with potential advertisers. Dataoutages.com will not disclose your individual identity or personal data. When Dataoutages.com does present aggregated information to potential advertisers, no one will be able to identify you or contact you.

We like RFC standards when they suit us.

We will block incoming mail (SMTP) traffic as we see fit. Domains that do not follow RFC guidelines will be blocked. Specifically, not following RFC 2142 (section 4) and RFC 2821 (section 4.5.1) will result in your entire domain being blocked from sending us e-mail. We don.t care if you are a national ISP with a few million customers.

We will block incoming web (HTTP) traffic as we see fit. Browsers/clients that spoof user agents or HREF.s will also be blocked at our discretion. Specifically, not following RFC 1945 (section 10.13 and 10.15) or RFC 2616 (section 14.36 and 14.43) will result in your domain or client being blocked.

Dataoutages.org may use language or ideas that are unsuitable to you. We can.t please everyone so we start with ourselves first.

This system may contain language, images, ideas, or philosophies that may be offensive to some, and a turn-on to others. This is your warning.
