Aurologic accused of being a major actor in enabling cybercrime
This discussion has been closed.

Not really. They were buddies, now competitors, and they’re in the same type of business.
Thread isn’t only about Aurologic, it’s also about if upstreams should have any other responsibilities than legal ones.
If we take a look at case studies... Upstreamers definitely have other responsibilities such as upholding their reputation.
How many times have we seen companies and/or services getting nulled and unannounced because they were attracting trouble and it being discussed here? Swear you could write a book on how to successfully fail at being reasonable adults and being good to do business with.
To whom? Upstream is such a niche market that 99.98999% population doesn't even understand that word. Money does not smell. You, emgh and a bunch of other internet personas know, that those upstream providers host a bunch of shady graddy stuff - they thrive on that.
The main question: what we can do about it? I can't vote with my wallet, I'am not their client. Everything else - is "pouring from empty to empty".
Sure, there's greed, dumb decisions, nothing but wanting to see the numbers and the client list go up.
That can only go up if we make good business decisions and don't paint ourselves with a giant target on our back, both legally and publicly... (We did... Discuss questionable and disputed services that the two upstreamers upstreamed... We did read the same thread right?)
Then again. What do you and I know? We're only people on a forum who buys infra, maybe makes an opinion or two and reads shit like this wondering what the fuck happened.
What the aforementioned upstreamers do behind closed doors we'll never know unless it ends up in discovery. Or maybe life will go on...
Maybe I am naive... Uneducated on business or whatever...
whois AS203446, there is no imprint on their website.
some small business doing business as an individual outside vat.
Small shady business, lil here and there. Earning living. Putting butter on the bread so to say.
most likely not enough for that, the owner probably has a real job elsewhere that makes a living.
No, that is not the case.
That’s exactly the case. Precisely.
What makes you believe that?
All evidence and calculations points to it.

TLDR: All the 4 mentioned ASNs were behind Aurologic via SovyCloud

That is literally what the law is there for. It defines your responsibilities.
No, it defines what is lawful. Responsabilities is determines by everyone induvidually, this is called culture.
The proof: tons of people in this thread don’t agree with you. This is because of personal preference about right and wrong. I get that you think that something being legal is enough, but lots of people won’t agree.
What a shit show. It's basically like real life. Legally, it's all fine. But you and everyone else knows your neighbour is a proper wanker.
Not much can be done. But we all know.
They realized they can't bully Aurologic into cutting off downstreams, so now they’ve got to find someone else to pester. How else are they going to justify waking up at 5am just to post about some ancient 2011 malware?
No, it's clear they're just jealous. Most of them run around with IPv6 "networks" because they’re too broke to god forbid even rent IPv4. They could never compare to SMARTNET / Aurologic. I hope Joseph keeps all these downstreams active let them keep chasing their tails. And you keep whatever that Optibounce stuff is active.
Oh, I'm sure you’ve got plenty of room to talk about someone else’s finances. If you want a slice of the pie, just say so. Is all the commentary really necessary?
Haha, you should add this to your LowEndTalk activity feed:
Not sure he’s into you mate
What is your domain? Is it Felcloud.NET or .IO?
I want to give you benefit of the doubt
new contestant!
So, i changed a lot of code.
I added:
I hope that i can push as of later today

Where did your IPv4 go buddy?

Hilarious that you posted this shortly after getting kicked out

Maybe the LIR got upset over you not hosting anything other than phishing and c2's?

Oy
His second /24 (also gone) was previously used by "FEMBOY PROXY SOLUTIONS HOLDINGS LLC"
Always funny to see fellow criminals running defense for people who allow them to commit crimes
Of course he is affiliated with Pfcloud/Netiface skids
"Superior hosting", includes the fan favorite term "RDP" in their AD as well

64% uptime, that's bad even by Calin's standards.
Find a new LIR before shitting at IPv6-only hobbynets, loser.
“Fellow criminals” oh please, shut up. I wake up happy every day no matter what’s going on, and I know you roll out of bed miserable and mad at the world. You’re the loser here, not me. And that prefix issue you keep crying about? It was fixed days ago, and it wasn’t even related.
Also, “IPv6 only hobbynets” Are you one of them or something? Purely asking for a friend, of course. I mean, you actually went out of your way to “track” me down? What kind of pent up anger are you carrying around? Because it’s obvious this hit a nerve. Let me know I’m curious
Thanks for admitting that you are indeed Felcloud.net, a yet another skid bulletproof host.
Move on.
Ew. You sat in that same chair for nine hours "looking" around about me? Don’t talk to me I don’t want to hear a thing out of you. Your a FREAK.
Step away from the keyboard, little dude. And seriously, you went all the way to even discover who i am and my profile literally has the domain in it you genius? “Skid bulletproof host”? Let me ask: since you’re so eager to act like you’ve got something impressive going on, why not actually show it?
Because when I pull up your profile on this lovely site, all I see is:
“Do you own, operate, or work for a hosting provider? No.”
So again: what exactly do you run that gives you time to obsess over me for nine hours? Or even to hover around here like this? It’s pretty clear you’re not exactly living large I see you in those bargain VPS threads begging for upgrades.
“Invoice #2606 double bandwidth please, if possible. Thank you in advance.”
Yeah, real powerhouse stuff.
So go on. Explain it. I’m waiting.
