Judge Rules In Favor Of Spamhaus
Waylon writes "U.S. District Judge Charles Kocoras has ruled in favor of The Spamhaus Project. e360 Insight responded on its homepage, saying the judge's ruling was 'a devastating loss of personal freedom for all U.S. citizens'. As opposed to shutting down a voluntary service which tries to mitigate the millions of unsolicited emails that e360 Insight pumps out every single day." From the article: "In his order, Judge Kocoras wrote that the relief e360insight sought is 'too broad to be warranted in this case' and that suspending the domain name would 'cut off all lawful online activities of Spamhaus, not just those that are in contravention' of the default judgment. He also called e360insight's motion one that 'does not correspond to the gravity of the offending conduct.'"

Why all this hate for e360insight? I understand they tried to deal fairly and amicably with Spamhaus and attempted to contact them numerous times by email.
Is it their their fault that they didn't get anywhere because Spamhaus didn't get their mails (sooo they say)?
AT&ROFLMAO
Tell me about it. They're almost as bad as Democrats.
Come on, ocelotbob, give up! This is Slashdot, you can expect a lot of uninformed people who have no idea of how SMTP works in practice to continue to make up stupid claims such as "messages go through many nodes, so if one of them uses spamhaus, that's one spam less you will receive" or "spamming will be more lucrative so you will receive far more spam and your gmail 3 GB free space will get full of spam" just because they did believe the megalomaniac FUD by spamhaus about the levels of spam increasing orders of magnitude without them.
Uh oh, those clueless might end up moderating this post down as a troll...
Don't you have a war to sign up for, you YELLOW Republican.
most Email administrators will just point to the RBL and be done with it. My experience is that the "average" email admin is a 40 year old windows PC guy that got stuck with it. They don't care about the mails or users anymore, just keeping the boss happy and following the company policy about blocking "bad things". Hence, when a vaild email gets put on one of these lists by somebody with a bug up their ass and a bad day, it's very hard to actually get email from them ever again. I'm not condoning spamming, but there isn't really a good review process with the RBL maintainiers that diferentiates between Spamming and nusance emails... it's become a beaurocratic mob mentality, that spam makes email administrators' jobs a little harder, so they rebel by punishing users and senders with a "what the hell" attitide.
