[AusNOG] Hoax calls ?

[Peter Tonoli]

I'm not a lawyer - or anywhere near that, however isn't that similar to what the complaints about the current Australian internet filter, that it may be illegal under the telecommunications interception act?

Adrian, 


I did reroute the domain to a warning page on our server in Brisbane and Sydney POPS. 
Looks like we saved 3 of our down stream ISP's customers from becoming victim to this HOAX. 


Just don't know how legal this is, but I don't care its the right thing todo. 




Kind Regards.

Ah, the hilarity.
