Toms reaction sounds probably much more horrible than it actually was. Leon did the right thing and kudos to him. We need to balance this with red flags going up - policy, procedure and US law. If any email like that came into MojoHost myself and business partner would have been alerted and our legal counsel Corey Silverstein would have reported to Missing and Exploited Children the URL, any evidence would have been preserved, online access removed all in some sort of order. Counsel also would have handled all of our communication to authorities and our customer. Leon and everyone you have to realize that the reality of such complaints scares the shit out of everyone, employees and owners alike.
While Toms response didn't include a thank you or any other detailed information about what might potentially have been all of their next steps or work in progress, I have a hard time believing that a proper response wouldn't have followed and unbeknownst to any notifying party. I sure hope so, anyway. I'm seeing all of these threads and still scratching my head about how they made it through initial or ongoing compliance.
Good work, Leon. I'm just baffled by the existence of all this. Whatever policies didn't keep these web sites away I am sincerely hopeful that they are discovered and completely shut down by every billing and hosting company that facilitates their existence.
What are the laws in the EU or Holland which would render that web host responsible for ceasing service? What authority is supposed to get notified? Perhaps Tim from ASACP can shed some light on the subject.
