Making Good on the Threat

Making Good on the Threat If there is one thing George W. Bush has taught the world, it is to make good on the threats. A couple of days ago, my hosting service provider, EV1Servers.net made a deal with SCO, who claim that they own parts of the Linux Operating System. I protested, saying it was immoral to fund a blackmailing company. But in today's response, the CEO of EV1Servers.net justifies his decision. He does not recognize the legitimate reasons of my anger (and I am not alone, see this SlashDot thread). Now I must do what I said I would do - switch to a different company. I have had two offers for free hosting from two companies. Thank you, but no thank you. I prefer to pay, so I can make threats like above I have shortlisted Interland and ServerBeach. I will decide soon. (Comments Disabled for Now. Sorry!) First Written: Wednesday, March 3, 2004 Last Modified: 3/2/2004
