Hi,
So, my personal summary is: --- Anybody, who is against a mandatory abuse field, is a professional spammer, abuser, maintains a bot net or sells open proxies or other services used for abusing others. They are criminals to my opinion.
I think this is a bit too absolute...
Not at all. There is only four types: 1 people that do like to do something against abuse originating from there resources 2 people that do like to do something against abuse reaching there networks 3 people that do not like to do anything against abuse originating from there networks Some of those interest could be combinated. (and all those will have no problem with the mandatory abuse field, they will either love it or they can ignore it) and: 4 people that dont want that others have it easier to work against spam THEY cause
But even they are, identify them as criminal might not be true as in some country spam might not even consider as offense.
Well, its illegal in my country, so I can call them criminals. (please do me a favor and name one country in the RIPE region, where its legal to abuse computers and services) The big question is: - should we stop any progress in spam reporting and the cleanup of the database because of people, that are criminals in most member countries ? - and that are not even located in the RIPE region ? - and that are no members ? The following always puzzled me anyway: how can people influence the regulations without being members or without bing located in the RIPE region ? The members pay the service and to my opinion, paying members should be the only ones, we should listen too. Its a weird situation, that anybody from whatever country with whatever background or regulations can influence everything. Lets take ICANN as an example: do you really think that I will have the chance to influence a vote at the ICANN members board without being a member ? Well, they might listen, what others have to say, but finally it will be a vote. Lets have a vote asking all RIPE members abuse this proposal instead of listening to every criminal from the world ... Kind regards, Frank
But thats only my impression ... ---
