Not sure about other areas of the world, but in the US, it is quite
common to:<br>
Have a consultant come in to do a assessment/design of an internal or
public network, including registering domains, because the client
simply doesn't understand or doesn't want to do it themselves. (Not
sure if this is the case, as I don't really know much about public root
at all)<br>
<br>
It's also quite common here for, when people (consultants or employees)
walk out after uncovering illegal activities, for the company to
consider them 'fired' under whatever policy they feel justified using.<br>
<br>
I can also speak from personal experience that almost all consultants
I've dealt with get an internal email address, if nothing else for
security reasons. Why send information to your consultant and have it
go off to some other mail server when it may contain sensitive
information.<br>
<br>
That's my .02 on the subject. I don't think there's really any proof
of misrepresentation, from my point of view, all of it could be
explained by typical consulting work and a disgruntled company.<br>
<br>
Now where's that ignore thread option......<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><br>
Dear Christopher and ARIN community:<br>
<br>
I am requesting a public apology from you Christopher Mettin and your
organization the Gymnasium Querfurt High School for calling me an
Internet
terrorist, a liar and other libelous, slanderous and defamatory
statements made
by you in a public forum against me.<br>
<br>
Also Christopher please do not jump the gun and make this decision on
your own.
Kindly consult your supervisor and principle with respect to my request
and
take the time to show them my request as well as the statements made by
you on
behalf of your school against me.<br>
<br>
For the record I will now respond to the allegations made against me by
Mr.
Mettin.<br>
<br>
1) I am not an "Internet terrorist". This claim by Mr. Mettin below
is not only false but seriously libelous, slanderous and defamatory.<br>
<br>
2) I was never an employee of the Public-Root. I was a consultant since
2003.
And I was not fired. I walked out along with other consultants because
of the
criminal activity uncovered by me - being mainly the embezzlement of
funds,
money laundering and tax evasion by senior executive staff.<br>
<br>
3) I never attacked Christopher's Gymnasium Querfurt High School. This
claim is
also false, libelous, slanderous and defamatory. I did attempt to email
senior
staff and also called by phone but was unable to get in touch with
anyone
except Mr. Mettin. I therefore have no idea if school staff know what
Mr.
Mettin is up to as I have been unable to contact a responsible adult at
the
school.<br>
<br>
4) Mr. Mettin's claims that the PublicRoot Consortium does not exist
are false.
The PublicRoot Consortium is organized as an unincorporated trust in
Canada.<br>
<br>
5) Mr. Mettin's claims below that his schools only involvement with the
people
who run the INAIC.com web site was to be "assigned a (top-level) domain
by
a company affiliated with the Public Root Ltd." is false. The top-level
domain the Gymnasium Querfurt High School purchased from them is GQNET
- a copy
of the whois for this domain is attached at the end of this message as
Appendix
A.<br>
<br>
But as members here have pointed out Mr. Mettin's forgot to mention
that the
Gymnasium Querfurt High School also sells TLDs for these shell
companies and
non existent organizations.<br>
<br>
6) Mr. Mettin's claims that my actions resulted in the shut down of a
company
are partially true. My actions resulted in the business failure of at
least
three companies and the investigation of a number of individuals for
criminal
acts being tax evasion and money laundering. Some individuals involved
in these
investigations have settled with the Dutch tax authorities.<br>
<br>
We also had the full support of the Turkish Government and SITA, as
well as a
number of other influential people, organization and countries. That
support
evaporated when I when public and blew the whistle.<br>
<br>
As a result of my actions fewer people ended up loosing their money in
this
scam which was my intention.<br>
<br>
7) Mr. Mettin's claims that I lie are also false, libelous, slanderous
and
defamatory.<br>
<br>
regards<br>

<br>
A few months ago my school has been attacked by this guy. He did already<br>
make an entire company shut down. His best weapons are lies.<br>
<br>
All that started when he was fired by the Public Root in 2005. We have
been<br>
assigned a domain by a company affiliated with the Public Root Ltd. and
so<br>
we became a major target to him. He sends his emails from a domain<br>
publishing a website of a "PublicRoot Consortium" which does not
exist. The<br>
contact address of this consortium is a private home in an Ontarian
suburb.<br>
Sending emails using this domain he tries to make people believe he is
an<br>
official employee of the Public Root.<br>
<br>
The IP addresses shall be in no way used with any root system.<br>
<br>
