It's still childish and unfair. And if everyone does this, then sooner or later someone's going to get blocked because they said something nasty about the root server operator's mother or something equally trite. I don't want to cry "free speech" but it will eventually become that kind of issue. I also fail to see how blocking them from one server restricts spammers in any way. Explain that one to me. > why in the world are we discussing this on NANOG? I've no idea. Perhaps you should have sent it to the individuals who are blocked instead (esp. considering most of them probably don't subscribe), or just not at all. I don't really care about spam domains, unless they spam me - in which case I procmail them into oblivion and that's that. This "fight spam" campaign is only serving to reinforce the belief that mass marketing via the net is working. If everyone just ignored the mail, the problem would go away. shag Judd Bourgeois PGP key ID 0xEDC21CA1 [email protected] 25DDE4AF C5AFEF51 6905DC77 360F0387 To all my friends - It's not the end The earth has not swallowed me yet - 311, "Freak Out" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
