Your violating this Policy may result in the suspension or cancellation of your SpinnNet services. Unlimited Access - allows the user to use their account at any hour without having to worry or keep up with hours of use. Unlimited Access does not mean "dedicated service" nor can it be connected as "server". 2.

Using SpinnNet services for illegal purposes or in support of illegal activities. SpinnNet reserves the right to cooperate with legal authorities and/or injured third parties in the investigation of any suspected crime or civil wrong.

'News bombing' constitutes sending more than 10MB of data to a newsgroup. Sending unsolicited email messages where the recipient objects to the content of the message or to the receipt of the message in general is also prohibited under this Section. Member acknowledges that he/she/it is expressly prohibited from utilizing SpinnNet's service, SpinnNet's equipment or any SpinnNet's electronic mail address in connection with the sending of the same or substantially similar unsolicited electronic mail message, whether commercial or not, to a large number of recipients. This prohibition extends to the sending of unsolicited mass mailings from another service which in any way implicates the use of SpinnNet's service, SpinnNet's equipment or any SpinnNet's electronic mail address. A message is unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a USENET or newsgroup charter and /or if it is sent to a recipient who has not requested or invited the message. For purposes of this provision, merely making one's e-mail address accessible to the public shall not constitute a request or invitation to receive messages. Member specifically agrees that he/she/it will not utilize the SpinnNet service, SpinnNet's equipment or any SpinnNet electronic mail address in connection with the transmission of the same or substantially similar unsolicited message to 50 or more recipients or 15 or more newsgroups in a single day. Members responsible for these acts may be terminated at SpinnNet's discretion. For each day upon which this provision is violated, Member agrees to pay SpinnNet $10.00 per day for an unintentional violation of this provision, but where warranted, such as in the case of an accidental transmission, SpinnNet may waive all or part of the applicable charge. In cases of willful violations of this provision, Member agrees to pay SpinnNet $200.00 per day. SpinnNet at its sole discretion shall determine whether such a violation was unintentional or willful. Payment by member under this provision shall not prevent SpinnNet from seeking to obtain other legal remedies against member, including other damages or an injunction. Revealing your account password to others or allowing use of your account by others (other than authorized users in your household). At no time can there be simultaneous use of the same username and password combination.

SpinnNet Assumes No Liability SpinnNet has no practical ability to restrict all conduct, communications or content which might violate this Policy prior to its transmission on SpinnNet's systems, nor can SpinnNet ensure prompt removal of any such communications or content after transmission or posting.
