Mr. Giwer has repeatedly abused the users of USENET with his spams for
months now. This latest tactic is just one in a series he has used to
attempt to destroy this newsgroup. He has publically stated that he controls it.
While he does not control it, he has made the enjoyment of the Internet very
difficult for any number of people who have been subjected to his spam and
email bombs.
He has also engaged in threats and extortion.
I am asking you to deal with the issue of Mr. Giwer and take the necessary
steps to end this flagrent net abuse.

Subject: Net Abuse -Giwer- Continues
Status: RO
For the last couple of weeks your user Matt Giwer [email protected], has
reapeatedly spammed the newsgroup alt.revisionism, repeating the same
message in one form or another over and over again. This message contains
the personal information of one of the participants of this conference who
also happens to be the Director of the Nizkor Project.
It is obvious that Mr. Giwer intends harm to Mr. McVay by broadcasting this
message. Mr. McVay, has in the past, been subject to death threats bu the
lunatic fringe for his good work on the Nizkor Project.
In addtion Mr. Giwer is interfering with the enjoyment of the Internet by
thousands of people with his foolishness. Taking up bandwidth and forcing
those of us who have to pay for access to wade through reams of this abuse.
Given Mr. Giwers past performance and repeated attacks, threast, extortions,
and spams. I cannot but believe you will take immediate action to end this
abuse.
A small portion of the relevant message I.D.’s follow. This is merely a
portion of the number that have been posted in recent weeks. The extent of
Mr. Giwers assault on USENET can be found at Deja News by doing a search for
“Whois Ken McVay.”
Following the message I.D.’s is a copy of one of the articles in question.
Each time Mr. Giwer repeats this spam I will be reporting it to you until
you take action to end it.

disppeared just prior to a 256 copy mailbomb from gryn.org saying that
it was false information. The owner of gryn.org, Alec Grynspan,
openly brags about having been in the Mossad, i.e. Israeli
