This document is intended to provide a general understanding of Pioneer Internet Acceptable Use Policy. Protection of our Customers and our resources, the ability to provide quality service to our Customers, conformance with existing laws, and protection of our reputation as a responsible service provider are all contributing factors to decisions on Acceptable Use Policy violations.

• It is our intention to allow Pioneer Internet Customers access to everything the Internet has to offer with minimal or no interference. Our belief in Free Speech is a firm commitment to our Customers. However, certain activities are considered inappropriate by the Internet community at large and cannot be permitted under the guise of Free Speech.
• We do not monitor the activity of accounts except for measurements of system utilization and billing records. However, in our efforts to promote good citizenship within the Internet community, if we become aware of inappropriate use of our service, we will respond appropriately.
• If a Pioneer Internet account is used to violate the Acceptable Use Policy, we reserve the right to terminate the service without notice. Our preferred course of action is to advise the Customer of the inappropriate behavior and any corrective action that is necessary. However, flagrant violations of the Acceptable Use Policy will result in immediate termination of service. Our failure to enforce this policy, for whatever reason, shall not be construed as a waiver of our right to do so at any time.
• As a member of our network community, we encourage you to use your Internet access responsibly. Should you have any questions regarding this policy, feel free to contact us at staff@pldi.net.
• Reports of activity in violation of this policy should be sent via e-mail to abuse@pldi.net.

Your Pioneer Internet account gives you access to thousands of USENET newsgroups. These newsgroups allow you to read and post messages on a variety of topics. USENET newsgroups may be moderated or unmoderated. Newsgroups may also have a charter or a FAQ that describes what posts are appropriate. Misuse of USENET may result in the termination of your service.

• Pioneer Internet provides an uncensored newsfeed. As such, Pioneer Internet does not control the content of the newsgroups available to you. Pioneer Internet believes that decisions about which newsgroups and messages to read are best left to its customers. Screening software is available from third parties, and it is your responsibility to use such tools if desired. Pioneer Internet is not responsible for the content of any USENET posting, whether or not the posting was made by a Pioneer Internet Customer.
• Postings to USENET newsgroups must comply with the written charters or FAQ's for those newsgroups. Advertisements, solicitations, or other commercial postings should only be posted in those newsgroups whose charters/FAQ's explicitly permit them. You are responsible for determining the policies of a given newsgroup prior to posting to it. If you are unable to find a newsgroup's policy regarding commercial posts, you must assume that such postings are not welcome.
• You may not post or cross-post the same or substantially similar message to more than 10 newsgroups. Continued cross-posting can result in termination of service and the removal of the articles from the newsgroups.
• You are prohibited from posting binary files to newsgroups not specifically named for that purpose.
• You are prohibited from posting messages promoting pyramid schemes, "Make Money Fast" (MMF) schemes, chain letters, or other schemes to USENET newsgroups. Doing so will result in immediate termination of service.
• You are prohibited from forging or removing header information. This includes attempting to circumvent the approval process for posting to a moderated newsgroup.
• You may not solicit mail for any address other than your Pioneer Internet Service account or service where doing so manifests an intent to harass others.
• You may not post USENET messages for the purpose of threatening, harassing or intimidating other USENET newsgroup users.
• You may not post messages which infringe on personal or property rights of others (e.g., privacy rights, copyrights).
• You may not cancel posts other than your own, with the exception of official newsgroup moderators performing their duties.

Pioneer Internet does not censor or control content posted to a USENET newsgroup. As a user of our service, you are solely responsible for the content that you publish.

This includes, but is not limited to, accessing data not intended for you, logging into or making use of a server or account you are not expressly authorized to access, or probing the security of other networks. Use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security is prohibited. Examples of these tools include, but are not limited to, password guessing programs, cracking tools or network probing tools.

• Although Pioneer Internet does not offer IRC software or technical support to access third party IRC servers, you may not use IRC scripts or programs that interfere with or deny service to other users on any other server or host. You also may not engage in activities which harass other users. This includes, but is not limited to, "flooding" (rapidly entering text with the intent to disrupt service), "flashing" (disrupting terminal emulation), "takeovers" (improper seizing and abuse of operator privileges), attempting to send private messages to those who do not wish to receive them, attempting to return to a channel after being banned from it, and other disruptive behaviors. You may run clones (multiple simultaneous IRC connections) and robots only as permitted by the host IRC server.

Any activity on Pioneer Internet network that is a violation of any state or federal law is a violation of this policy and will result in immediate termination of service. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to:
