Read it while you can

News alert. I see Cannabis Culture is running a banner saying the site may go down today at 5:00 since their ISP is considering dropping all of Marc's sites because of ongoing denial-of-service attacks. Information will be posted at the NORML Canada forums.

It's a sign of how effective an activist Emery is, that he is enduring these vicious assaults. His assailants are fools if they think they can keep him down, even if they succeed in knocking off the site.

UPDATE: The site is still up and running and it appears Marc has already figured out how to thwart his would-be usurpers and has found a new server for the site that can withstand the scurrilous DoS attacks. A new banner on the site announces:

Site will be TEMPORARILY offline at 12:01 am Pacific (8:01 am UTC), Sunday morning the 28th of November 2004 for server relocation (anticipated downtime - 3h).

And you wonder why I admire this man?
