proposal to hide ANYTHING which links to heinzreports

andi | 09.08.2002 20:15

someone calling himself "jean" has started to spam the wire since a few weeks. he tends to upload an index file that takes over the colour of the website and directly links to his various heinzreport sites. lately he has charged these sites with cookies which open multiple windows and open several new ones if you try to close those windows.

before you go thru my list below just check these two contributions from 2 august, i think they show everything about that guy's mindset:
 http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=37446
 http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=37447

his postings are easily recognisable if you look at the MIME type column for the type of uploaded file: if it's a text/html file it's almost for sure him. i have put a dot in front of the file path in the line for 'linked file' - i would not propose to delete the path as having the path in admin is a nice bit of evidence in case people are accusing us of random censorship again. i propose we treat jean like we treat Bob Deaf Israel which means hide irrelevant what it is.

any objections to this? then please mail to the features list on  imc-uk-features@lists.indymedia.org

btw - lately Deaf Booby Trap nutter's back, too:
