From sroy.mb at gmail.com Sat May 24 23:13:39 2014 From: sroy.mb at gmail.com (Sarbajit Roy) Date: Sun, 25 May 2014 11:43:39 +0530 Subject: [IAC] IAC#RG: "India Resists" mailing list under cyber attack Message-ID: To: IAC#RG List subscribers / contributors The riseup.net list system is under sustained cyber attack, and IAC technical experts are working on the solutions..We suspect it is due to sustained criticism of Mr. Kejriwal recently on this list but we do not rule out other sources either. Hence we are shutting down the list for 48 hours and initiating backup / counter strategies to keep citizens fundamental right to information / free speech and expression intact Please do not reply to this email, as it is sent from a backup list-server.. The counter-measures will include the following a) Certain subscribers (we have a long list) who are identified as email spammers by well known spam sites and gmail, will be ruthlessly deleted from the list membership. They are advised to rejoin under a new email ID if they wish to receive IAC#RG.emails. Or else they can read emails posted at http://rti4citizens.blogspot.in b) The moderation quality standards for emails circulated to our 25,000+ subscribers is being raised substantially with immediate effect. Please improve the quality and content of your messages and make sure you have something substantial to contribute - as it is very expensive to circulate your emails to so many persons on our list. Emails which are posted to / from other mailing lists will not be circulated from now on. c) The maximum number of emails sent from the list will be 10 per day (preferably less). Sarbajit
