Let's see the definition posted so far: (1) Resource Any Internet Resource
which means: 1) what is "recursive"? Answer: see 1)
not so much, Internet resources are exactly that, all Internet resources, as per the preamble and even the examples in the same section - see the bottom of this email - and the list of Internet Resources are finite. As in they are not recursive or even endless at any given point in time (snapshot) of tech progress.
In the end it is "humans" who are abused; the provider can act
Not so. It is the Internet itself, Companies, Organisations, Communities even Countries and the list is long.... This is now a useful discussion! and hopefully it serves to develop understanding and not become personal or about personal ego's or issues.
only if that kind of abuse is then somehow published in its AUPs. So they should contain some broad terms which might be interpreted by a reasonable abuse department. At least a violation of the local laws should be included, so that a contract can be cancelled or other actions be taken. And yes, if there are new forms of misuse (abuse) not covered by the AUPs, then the AUPs have to be changed.
In the end, all anti-abuse decisions must be that good that the could stand a trial; If sending spam is allowed in a country/at a provider then it is hard to take countermeasures.
So..suggestion: abuse somehow is the violation of local laws and AUPs of the involved providers. (Someone might want to finalize that in correct english)
But not all Internet abuse is in violation of laws, and, just because it is not illegal, are you saying that because it is not illegal, it means that it is not abuse?
We might come here to a majority decision; I don't want to argue on Andre`s resources again..
So what are being abused then, if not 'resources' you are conveniently cutting the sections dealing with what resources are and even with examples? - and you are simply saying that you do not want to talk about it, so it simply is like that. ============ Internet Abuse ============ Understanding what constitutes Internet Abuse is not an easy undertaking as the topic is sometimes very technical. The Internet consists of resources and the understanding of Internet abuse relates to also understanding the use and interaction between these resources. Examples of Internet resources include also processes, protocols, credentials as well as other types of resources. More practical examples could be Internet Protocol numbers, Domain names or even Email addresses. This technical definition of Internet abuse does not include identifying the authority for any specific resource as it is not intended to define any rights to resources but simply to define what technically constitutes Internet abuse as it relates to all Internet resources. ====================== Definition of Internet abuse ====================== "The non sanctioned use of a resource to infringe upon the usage rights of another resource" -------------------------------------------------------- Terminology used in the above definition -------------------------------------------------------- (1) Resource Any Internet Resource (2) Use and Usage Any direct or indirect action involving a resource (3) Rights The correct assignment or allocation of a resource by the authoritative holder of such a resource which results in the entitlement or reasonable expectation to use, or ability to use, such an allocated or assigned resource (4) Infringe An action, event or situation which limits, reduces, undermines or encroaches upon the fair use of a resource (5) Sanctioned Infringement upon the use of a resource by the assignor or administrative holder of rights to a resource
