We're considering null-routing all BT netblocks. I'm wondering how many others have already come to the same conclusion?

Yeah, I know. This is exactly why no ISPs have abuse help desks that respond, and nobody can get even the most trivial problems solved.


We do better. We answer *EVERY* abuse complaint. Which isn't much, because we do the job correctly. And we care about the reliability/usability of the 'Net as a whole.

So when the 'Net becomes partitioned by economics and politics, re-read this letter and know that "I told you so". Know that being a smart-ass wasn't worth the effort. It's already going there, and everyone whines but very few of us are doing the job in a manner appropriate to actually solving problems.
