[atlas] Unauthorised probe transfers

Hi Johan,

I don't have any colleagues in this regard - I am an individual, nor am I employed by LeaseWeb.

This is 100% a mistake, I did NOT give LeaseWeb approval to cease my probes.  They not contacted me about my probes.  I've opened a ticket with them as I am thoroughly unimpressed with them, and now with RIPE.

I feel I may as well close my account, if RIPE will willingly let probes be ceased then I do not feel inclined to run any.  It's a shame, I ran 7 probes for the benefit of the wider community.

Paul.

Hello,

I've just had 2 emails saying that 2 of my software probes (numbers 1000305 & 1000137) have been transferred to LeaseWeb NOC.  Both these probes (and another) live on LeaseWeb VPSs (one in NL, one in USA) but I haven't started or authorised a transfer.  Before I go and shout at then, how could this have happened?

Checking in 'My Atlas' it does indeed no longer show these as being my problems.

Why would the good people at RIPE allow transfer of 2 of my probes without my approval?

I moved these probes to a new LeaseWeb account at the specific request of one of your colleagues.

I will email you privately to give you his contact details so you can take this up with him. He can then transfer them back to you if you both believe these should not have been included in the transferlist.

Kind regards,

Yours,
