You don't need a PhD to phish a Brit university: Nonprofit claims 100% hit rate is easy peasy

The campus network is provided for academic purposes: wen a student pays registration fees, the fees cover the usage of internet, but it may not be covering every possible usage beyond what is needed for studying. That can easily be specified in some form of acceptable user policy. And any usage that does not fall under such APU is filtered out.

When at university, there are rules on other stuff, like you are not allowed to beat up your fellow comrades or you cannot set-up fire to the chemistry lab. Why would there not be rules on the usage of internet?
