@Jason That seems like a bit much.
No different than a cabling company suing to get back pay from someone when they forget to disconnect the service to the customer.
Actually that seems like a bit much. I can see back charging for something like webhosting VPS hosting when it's quite clear the purchaser is still using them... but cable - How do you prove they were using it?
Actually it's still a crime. Cable companes can detect which devices are watching, heck even some the newer stuff will report the Model # of it.
Here is the difference the government is in bed with the cable companies. They have never even heard of C@C. Saying someone is going to get sued over a VPS is a bit extreme.
C@C has their heads so far up their ass that they have no clue anyway. Even if they did decide to try to sue, it would get thrown out immediately once they say all the PayPal charge backs and complaints.

Did I say it wasn't a crime? I very carefully explained that it WAS a crime, but only because they wrote a new kind of law to make it so because it isn't on its own.

Yeah, notice the "passive theft" wording makes it only about cable services - because it is in no way theft.

@68biscayne you need to read the threads about CloudatCost. You would never, ever use them no matter what BS they feed you in their email ads if you were aware of the situation.

Cause if it was someone leaving $5 in my house would be theft.

Again, nothing like that. You can try all you want to support cable companies but it is super clear that no normal concept of theft applies to a company running a cable into your house and pumping unrequested material into it. Under normal laws, if the government was not providing special cases, you could sue the cable company for putting things in your house without your permission. Like adult channels. They don't have the right to force that into a home. I've had them put it on my antenna before. Claim all you want that changing channels is stealing but that's just lying. Cable companies only get to consider this a crime because of corruption.
There is zero stealing involved if something is being pumped into your house without your authority or request. I'm not talking about splicing lines or anything, I'm talking about the cable company doing it.
I've had cable forced into my home and sometimes you can't even know it is cable. If you can't know it is a crime, you know you are dealing with corruption.

If you force money into my house, have no way to give it back, make it clear that it is your money and force it over time over and over into my hands but have no means to return it and...
See how completely struggling you are to come up with something "theft like" to make it a crime?
If I move into a new house and there is a $5 bill in it, by law, that money is mine, actually. So even in your unrelated, contrived example, it isn't theft.

Is this really a crime? $5 is left on your counter and you see it but don't touch it... suddenly you are committing theft?

Even if you touch it. Remember with cable theft you don't necessarily know that there is a cable involved, don't know who the provider is, did not let them in your house, etc.
If stealing cable is a crime, does providing cable to be stolen constitute breaking and entering?

No, I was saying that's how the laws work for cable companies.

Yes, because it is a very specific law that makes "stealing cable" a crime when it isn't theft, just like I explained in the original post. Stealing cable needed its own law because no existing theft law would cover it since no actual theft is taking place.

@scottalanmiller I only run a small minecraft server with them. What upset was that at some point someone got access to my account and deleted the VM and deployed a windows VM. No idea how they did it, but my son was heartbroken he lost everything he had done. that's the only thing that ever came up for me (although a big one)

Good luck running minecraft there with there IOWait issues.. And windows has no legal way of running on C@C.

@Jason for windows, maybe it's a license thing? don't know, don't have one. The server seems to be running it just fine for him. Just one 8 year old playing on the server and he hasn't told me he is having issues. Then again, he rarely complains about anything when he is allowed to use the computer. I should ask him if the game is "slow"
