I work on spam filter and we notice very gross abuse of very large internet ranges by blatant spammers posing as ISPs - all of which are allocated by ripe.
This kind of issue has been discussed here many times previously. I am not saying it should not be discussed again, just that some archive browsing may be a good way to determine the stands various participants have taken on this general subject.
Can ripe do anything here or of any help here other than just saying they just give away ip addresses ranges to ISPs (which inturn some are criminals) but do not police ?
You are a member of this working group; in other words, RIPE is you. Will you be the person who actually creates a useful proposal that can be implemented as RIPE policy? Instructions are available at http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-500. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/
