Rules

The Partynet provides the party visitors with a high-speed connection to the Internet. To be able to use this connection, visitors must obey the following rules and restrictions.

Each visitor is allowed to connect one (1) computer to the Partynet and each visitor is automatically assigned one (1) dynamic public IP address. The use of private hubs or switches is also forbidden, as is the use and setup of own WLAN-networks. Also it is forbidden to use Internet sharing programs or devices to extend the network. If any of the previously mentioned devices are found on the network, they will be disconnected and may be confiscated for the duration of the event.

Breaking any of the rules mentioned here will lead to actions that are a warning, disconnection from the network for the duration of Assembly or removal from the event in the most extreme case.

Unlawful distribution of software or other material protected by copyright is strictly forbidden. The possession or distribution of material, such as pornographic or violent images or films, that is forbidden in or against the Finnish law is strictly prohibited. Setup and usage of servers or services to distribute such material is also strictly prohibited. FTP, HTTP, Windows file sharing and other protocols are blocked from the Internet to the Partynet in our firewall. P2P file sharing software (eg. edonkey, kazaa, gnutella) is also blocked by our firewall. Hacking, scanning the network or activities related to these are strictly forbidden. If there is evidence that these rules are broken, the penalty will be immediate removal from the event and if needed, a police case will be filed.

Please make sure beforehand that there are no Internet connection sharing programs or such active in your computer that may have been left on accidentally. These programs often cause widescale problems in the network and in the worst case they may cause severe problems in the connections of a whole network segment.
