Scam-Linked ISP Intercage / Atrivo Gets Shut Out

The lifeline linking notorious service provider Intercage to the rest of the Internet has been severed. Intercage, which has also done business under the name Atrivo, was knocked offline late Saturday night when the last upstream provider connecting it to the Internet’s backbone, Pacific Internet Exchange, terminated Intercage’s service. Intercage president Emil Kacperski said Pacific did not tell him why his company had been knocked offline, but he believes it was in response to pressure from Spamhaus, a volunteer-run antispam group, which has been highly critical of Intercage’s business practices — via Slashdot
