Elad Cohen

Hello Ronald,

I don’t particularly side with any party here, but as already made clear indirectly by my passive aggressive tone on your trace route (which was nothing but a route loop in cogent’s network), I do certainly disagree with the way you treat Mr. Cohen. This comes due to the nature that whilst this whole story might be quite funny and interesting to follow, this is certainly not a place where you can slander his name or anyone associated with him in any manner for the entertainment of everyone. It is - at least speaking for myself - fairly interesting to follow the development of this story, but then again you act a lot like you just want to slander Mr. Cohen and his affiliates instead of doing this is some sort of general pointing out (which then again defeats the point of taking this on the list). Perhaps keeping messages to the list limited to updates with actual proof behind might be the way forward instead of starting a legal war. Keep in mind, I’m not even judging here if what happens is legitimate or not.
