Trustic Anti-Spam Service To Close

Posted by simoniker on from the people-can't-be-trusted? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "I recently received an email from the anti-spam service Trustic saying: "We have decided to close the Trustic service. We have determined that the system as it currently is designed will not achieve the level of accuracy that we require, and an inaccurate system is worse than no system."" We covered Trustic's anti-spam service, which billed itself as "a community-based block list that prevents untrusted servers from sending spam", as recently as a couple of weeks ago.

    "Have you ever caught them all?"

    Weird. In Pokemon, you've got to catch 'em all.

    Otherwise, you're just some lame Jap kid with no girlfriend and useless balls. Kinda like being a slashdot reader.

    (That's the ironic part.)

    You are giving money to an ISP that is spam friendly.
    You are directly at fault for them being in business still.
    You are not at all innocent

    Riiiight.

    You are smoking a joint, so you support terrorism, correct? "Directly at fault" I would say...

    So, dissy, tell me, do you take upon yourself all the sins of corporations the products of which you use?

    So how much did M$ pay them to shut down. We all know the behemoth is trying to push its proprietary "secure mail-server DNS" extension.
