One Last Spamhaus Warning Before The End
kog777 writes to mention that Spamhaus has released a final warning about an increase in junk email, as they prepare to lose their domain to an Illinois court ruling. From the article: "According to Spamhaus, more than 650 million Internet users - including those at the White House, the U.S. Army and the European Parliament - benefit from Spamhaus' 'blacklist' of spammers that helps identify which messages to block, send to a 'junk' folder or accept. Losing the domain name would make it more difficult for service providers and others to obtain the lists. 'If the domain got suspended, it would be an enormous hit for the Net,' said Steve Linford, Spamhaus' chief executive officer. 'It would create an enormous amount of damage on the Internet.'"
Yeah, I'm sorry about the damage the US did to France and Germany in WWII. I wish Western Europe was speaking German right now. Of course, if that were the case, you'd be the whinging twit who complains that the US never gets involved....
"Maybe this will cause the community to complain about ICANN and the American control of the internet?"
No, what America should do is pull all support and funding to rest of the world, stop all inbound imegration and revoke all current visa's and round up the illegals and either send them home or toss their ass into Mexico (hey, they dump their garbage here!) and just let the rest of the planet go to hell. When you come whining back we can then do what we should do today. Tell you to kiss our collective asses!!
