	Nortel Networks: News Releases - AGIS Contracts Nortel Networks for Delivery of End-to-End, Carrier-Grade 'Unified ...
		BOSTON, MA -- Customers of Apex Global Internet Services (AGIS), the world's first facilities-based Internet Service Provider (ISP), will soon be able to fulfill their data communications needs through a new scaleable, high-performance and IP optimized optical backbone network.
		Expanding their global Internet business across 35 core nodes, AGIS will replace their core IP routing network nationwide with Nortel Networks equipment.
		AGIS was the first national service provider to offer 155 Mbps connections to the Internet, the first to reduce single point of failure in a network by introducing switching technologies, the first to design a carrier-grade service for ISPs, and the first to provide geographically distributed collocation facilities on its network.

	Internet Telephony Services
		Since the kinds of services that convergence will enable are not entirely clear, carriers need a highly flexible media server that will allow them to modify existing applications at any time and to quickly create new ones.
		These days, some manufacturers are even providing suites of service-ready solutions with a platform to bill for the services as well, to help avoid some of the billing problems facing new networks, and others have already begun incorporating multimedia functionality into their servers to make full use of what convergence has to offer.
		APEX Voice Communications is a dynamic, responsive, and innovative company that provides enhanced services solutions for both traditional TDM-based networks and IP-based next-generation networks.

	AGIS Backbone Buckles
		Phillip J. Lawlor's Apex Global Internet Services last week declared bankruptcy when it filed for relief from its creditors while in Chapter 11 reorganization.
		AGIS was the target of a "systematic attack" on its network in 1997 as the result of Lawlor's stance on spam.
		He believed that Internet service providers were not responsible for the content of the e-mail transported through their networks.

	AGIS and Novell partner to deliver Directory-Based Internet Services
		Directory-enabled Internet services will enable carriers and service providers such as ISPs, local exchange carriers (ILECs) and (CLECs) as well as large enterprises with multiple locations to develop a foundation for business to business electronic commerce.
		Directory-based Internet services will deliver the ability to flexibly interconnect employees, customers, and vendors, in a secure manner with all users able to access their mission critical data.
		These services made possible by AGIS and Novell will make business processes far more efficient by managing and enhancing the data services, which without a directory and a single global services provider, will require time, labor, and purchase of additional services for full functionality.

	Open Port and Sun Microsystems Collaborate to Deliver IP Messaging Solutions to Service Providers
		The solution is designed to help service providers fill the pipe with new subscription- and transaction-based services while minimizing the impact on their existing network infrastructures.
		One service provider that is currently trialing the joint solution is Interpath Communications, a network-based applications service provider based in Research Triangle Park, N.C. "We are very pleased that Sun and Open Port are joining forces to address the needs of application service providers," said Michael Fox, general manager of Internet services for Interpath.
		IP LaunchPad is Open Port's Internet services creation platform, which the company describes as "an operating system for IP applications." The platform is designed for network service providers, ISPs, resellers and local exchange carriers to deploy new IP services by easily snapping in applications.

	Internet Telephony Services
		Service channels simplify the complex, manual, and skill-intensive task of managing security associations, policies, and keys for intranets and extranets.
		In summary, network service providers need an application that delivers the visibility and control enterprise clients demand before outsourcing their network, and the agility IT managers need to be responsive to their end users' ever changing business needs.
		With this service, interactive television customers won't have to interrupt their activities to see who is calling -- the caller information will be displayed in the ITV portal.

	Why I hate AGIS.NET
		Because the activity of spammers is selfish, unethical, intrusive, uncreative, and contrary to the entire spirit which built the Internet and defined its operation for decades, these imbeciles have found themselves in a rather perpetual state of no connectivity.
		Briefly, the bottom line is that spammers seek to exploit the economics of the Internet for their own short-term personal gains, at the expense of the Internet community as a whole and individuals and organizations whose computing resources are leeched.
		The practice of spamming is having a detrimental effect on the quality of the Internet, on the ability of individuals and organizations to serve their own email needs, and on the value of email.

	Spam King Wins Reprieve in Court
		Lawlor said his Dearborn, Mich., company, one of the six largest Internet providers in the country, cut the circuits because the AGIS network was under attack from both sides of the junk e-mail war and because the junk mailers were not living up to their agreement to clean up the reviled spam business.
		Though Wallace has been called the most hated man on the Internet, Lawlor said he agreed to provide service to Cyber Promotions and the other companies earlier this year because he believed that there should be a place on the Internet for responsible bulk mailings.
		Wallace formed the Internet EMail Marketing Council and established a Web page with a global remove list that theoretically all spammers would use to filter out the e-mail addresses of people who signed up to say they didn't want to receive junk e-mail.

	NetZero Offers Free Net Access - Technology News by TechWeb
		NetZero has financial backing from Idealab Capital Partners, in Pasadena, Calif. Apex Global Internet Services (AGIS), in Detroit, provides the dial-up platform to support the actual Net access because NetZero is a "virtual" ISP and does not maintain its own network.
		In return for the free service, a subscriber must tolerate a 1-inch by 3-inch advertising display window on the computer monitor called the AdVantage Window, which delivers continuous, 30-second ads geared toward a subscriber's specific interests.
		Analysts said there may be a role for free Internet access, but the key is whether the ISP can finance the effort until the advertising revenue starts rolling in.

	Merchant of bandwidth - Philip Lawlor, Apex Global Internet Services' CEO, pres and chmn - Company Business and ...
		Lawlor's company, Apex Global Internet Services--AGIS--is one of the small number of national service providers (NSPs) who supply the backbone of the Internet.
		Typically, Lawlor says, the service providers have not wanted to guarantee levels of service, and particularly have not been willing to let customers see what goes on in the network.
		The challenge in providing quality of service throughout the Internet is bandwidth.

	A Cyberpromo victim strikes back...
		Since degraded service leads directly to loss of business, most ISPs choose to purchase the necessary equipment and bandwidth to maintain their level of service.
		In addition, the majority of my Internet postings carry a warning to the effect that all email sent to my account is automatically printed on a facsimile receiver.
		Wallace's bandwidth provider, Apex Global Internet Services, has been notified that he is violating Federal law every time junk email is sent to my account, and has refused to take any action to prevent future violations.

	Have telcos missed the multimedia train?
		To support future multimedia services, carriers are also incorporating the latest Internet standards into their frame relay and ATM backbone networks.
		Apex Global Information Services is tripling the size of its network with new ATM backbone nodes in New York City, Boston, Dallas, Houston and Phoenix.
		Clearly, the multimedia-enabled Internet is driving demand for bandwidth for both virtual private networks that use the Internet as a backbone and public Internet services.

	Cyber Promotions v. Apex Global Information Services
		However, these services will not be able to be operational for approximately 30 to 90 days after any contract is signed with an alternate provider.
		If Cyber is not restored to the Internet immediately, Cyber will not have the capital to commit to a contract with another Internet service provider.
		The reactivation of Cyber's access to the Internet may well cause the magnitude of damage to AGIS of its "backbone Internet" service, to AGIS's clients or to other users of the Internet, because of retaliatory actions by the pingers.

	Cyberpromo Spam Domain Names
		WorldCom's UUnet Technologies Inc., estimated to be the world's fourth largest carrier of Internet traffic, agreed to a three-year contract that gives Cyber Promo (www.cyberpromo.com) capacity to send nearly 100 average-sized e-mail messages per second.
		Though unscientific and dependent on users' awareness, the poll will ask Netizens how much unsolicited, commercial e-mail they receive each week, whether they use mail filters or agents to dispose of it before it hits their boxes, and how much time and money they spend getting rid of the messages.
		Internet service providers frustrated with spam attacks are turning their wrath on Apex Global Information Services Inc., a network that regularly allows junk e-mail to travel its backbone.

		Sony TV sent him cease-and-desist letters, and the blogger took down the content because he was concerned about his ability to enter into a war-of-attrition lawsuit against Sony.
		The MPPA asked the court for permission to conduct discovery against SBC Internet to learn the identities of the 12 defendants, whose IP addresses are disclosed in the complaint.
		I think there are two aspects to this case which are of interest: the appropriateness of the seizure/disclosure, and the interruption of service to the Indymedia servers.

		The amount of junk email, otherwise known as 'spam', on the Internet has been reduced, for a few days at least; the biggest company specialising in unsolicited email has lost their 'Net connection.
		Apex Global Internet Services (AGIS) cut the link to Sanford Wallace's company Cyber Promotions at the end of last week, citing "outstanding security issues" as their reason.
		Cyber Promotions tried to arrange Internet connectivity from a number of other Internet service providers, but all have so far refused; either their existing contracts would prohibit such activities, or they simply don't want the bother of being the site who provides Wallace's connection.

	Cyber Promotions v. Apex Global Information Services
		However, the fact that Cyber is an unpopular citizen of the Internet does not mean that Cyber is not entitled to have its contracts enforced in a court of law or that Cyber is not entitled to such injunctive relief as any similarly situated business.
		Although Defendant rightly argues that specific performance of this contract is unlikely to be eventually granted as a form of relief under Michigan law, the issue before me is whether ultimately Cyber has a reasonably likely claim of success on any claim against Cyber, including damages under Michigan law.
		Recent cases have held that there is no First Amendment right to send bulk e-mail and that Internet service providers are permitted to block such mail if they choose.

		As more advertisers have joined the business, Congress and state legislatures around the country have begun debating ways to stem the flow of unwanted advertisements into their constituents' in-boxes.
		His Cyber Promotions company has been offline since early October, when Apex Global Internet Services (AGIS) threw his company off their servers after a court-ordered waiting period expired.
