In case you missed it... scamdy.com is GONE.
Scamdy.com, dedicated to smears of Andy Stephenson and his friends, was removed from the internet several days ago due to violations of federal law reported to its ISP.

If you don't believe me, just go look for yourself, but I have that information from the person who swore out the complaint and who was communicated with by the ISP.

1. Great.
Now, for the news that the perpetrators were served with reams of paper. That would be a good thing.

6. Let's not engage the scamdy.com apologists/participants in this thread
their goal is to get it locked, just like last time.

Ignore them, and alert on their posts.

8. That would be partial justice.
I assume the rest of the justice is still on its way?

13. This sort of justice is expensive to buy.
You have to pay a lawyer for a lot of the civil actions that would be required, and before doing that, it would be important to figure out if any of those losers had two dimes to rub together to pay the damages. Somehow I doubt any of them do anything more useful than living in their mom's basements, masturbating to "Soldier Of Fortune".

12. Man It is a freaking shame
they way that thread went. I am glad that they are off the net. ISP providers do have rules that have to be met and if not they will take you off their server.

I have seen firsthand how violation of copyright law is used to get someone's site off of the net as that is a violation of the server rules. They are stated in plain english for anyone who signs up...

14. Excellent links
Ben, your OP in the first thread had some great links:

The vile website, Scamdy.com was removed from the internet several days ago.

From the first minute, it was built on lies and fraud. It was registered under a stolen identity, in order to point blame at someone who had no connection to it, and to try to divide our community.

The privacy of individuals was invaded by posting personal photos, home address and phone number info, clearly to incite harassment.

The entire content of the site was lies, misinformation, malicious speculation, harassment and hate.

Formal complaints of violation of United States law, falsification of information and abuse were filed.

As a result, the site was removed by the IP on Monday, August 1. No further information can be furnished at this time.

For background, please see this article: http://www.opednews.com/articles/opedne_elizabet_050714_the_stalking_of_andy.htm

19. Great, so now that it's over,
hopefully, we won't have to have this Internetwide, flame-fest clusterfuck of a joke on DU, anymore. Now, it's a matter of everyone letting Andy rest in peace.
