RIPE Mailing List Code of Conduct
by Brian Nisbet 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

Colleagues, I wanted to make you all aware of the formal implementation of a code of conduct for RIPE mailing lists. As you're aware the AA-WG mailing list has been, loosely, operating under similar guidelines for some time, but I certainly appreciate a much broader community approach. The code of conduct is here: https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/ripe-mailing-list-ripe-forum-code-of-… It is based on the RIPE Community code of conduct and codes in place for technical communities across the world. If you have any questions in regards to this, please let Tobias or myself know. We can, as always, be contacted at aa-wg-chair(a)ripe.net Thanks, Brian Co-Chair, RIPE AA-WG -- Brian Nisbet Network Operations Manager HEAnet CLG, Ireland's National Education and Research Network 1st Floor, 5 George's Dock, IFSC, Dublin D01 X8N7, Ireland +35316609040 brian.nisbet(a)heanet.ie www.heanet.ie Registered in Ireland, No. 275301.

The announcement spree seems to have started more or less in 2017 although the earlier announcements in 2005-2006 seems to have same pattern. Smaller prefixes also seems to be way back. Check the json-file for that. https://stat.ripe.net/widget/routing-history#w.resource=69.30.192.0/18 https://stat.ripe.net/data/routing-history/data.json?min_peers=0&resource=6… > > Has anyone experienced anything similar and does anyone know what type > of silly operation this is or what their goals could possibly be? > > Is it some AI learning thing? or a bit eater? or what? Due to the price model https://www.wholesaleinternet.net/ has I see it as just a heaven for spammers and black hats. Buy a virtual server for $10/month no question asked.

.gov .ru or .ch ?

Hi All, Frequently I see new exploits, old exploits, plain old brute force and all scans from the same weird shell corporations. (of course I collect exploits, specially 0day, as they are very useful) Usually when I report hacking/security abuse (like a main bot, etc) most ISP's actually take a look and clean up, as it is bad for their network to have this there anyway.... But there are 'bullet proof' hackers as complaints never do anything, no matter how much logs and evidence is submitted. These are your government hackers, USA, China, Russia, etc. But, one of these bullet proof hackers is so k1dD13 that I have no clue what it could be (as the stuff they run, will never work, even on non patched servers/devices) - Yet complaints also have no result and the modus operandi is always the same... They have distributed small delegations, like /29 /28 /27 and on rare occasions a /26 and always registered to Kansas, USA For example IP number 69.30.255.107 Has anyone experienced anything similar and does anyone know what type of silly operation this is or what their goals could possibly be? Is it some AI learning thing? or a bit eater? or what? Andre

It seems there is a definition issue here. I am sure Twitter does not intentionally spam its users, but many users that receive messages from Twitter think of these as spam. What is probably true: - Real spammers may be abusing the infrastructure offered by Twitter to spam and Twitter is unable/unwilling to take action to stop this - Twitter account holders have their settings set up that they receive too many notifications that they do not really want. Solving the second is easy: Just change your notification settings. Volker PS: It may be helpful to say exactly which messages you consider spam instead of opening up with the big guns right away but without sufficient detail to verify your claims.
