Besides, where I live there's only one ISP So, does your ISP have an anti-spam TOS and enforce it? Do use their mail server instead of direct to MX?
If you answer "yes" to those, you don't have much to worry about. Even if there is only one ISP, you have a worldwide choice of mail providers and web hosts.
SPEWS lists on the order of a half percent of netspace after IANA reserved blocks are taken out.
So, why all the gripes when you have a 1 in 200 chance of being in the netspace. Much, much less than that if you happen to do due diligence before signing up with a provider.
SPEWS works great. I've been using it on my MTA for a while. I had to move from Osirusoft to something else, but it caused barely a hiccup.
If those lists start going down, I may have to set up a DNS locally and download/make my own zone files. Now, how many admins are probably going to be doing something similar? How many of those are ISPs that have cleaned up their act going to have to contact? How many are actually going to remove those IPs?
There was a banner ad in rotation that was primarily text, but would shake every once in a while. My response was to uninstall Opera and install Mozilla
I was helping out as a volunteer at a hospital, no ID, no nothing. My shift was done, I got into the elevator and pressed 1. That's where the exit is of course, right? Well, no. It was a high security mental ward that I waltzed into with nary a challenge.
What is the proper unit to measure popularity in? $ spent, units, or time spent entertained?
By time and $, games beat box office movies. Is units really relevant? Remember to take into account more than one person can also use a given unit for games. That's not true in the theater, although that is true for rentals.
Gee, I guess that $12.99 I spent on a game (Legend of the Dragoons, PS1, new, not used) the other day doesn't exist. There aren't just $60 games.
Costs twice as much as a movie, 20-30 times the length, and my wife likes watching me play it, so it's not much different from a movie from her point of view.
You're quite right, a lot of people get screwed over.
Now, a lot *MORE* people get screwed over by the bandwidth and time eaten by spammers. How do you propose that ISPs that refuse to boot spammers get treated by the rest of the net, without causing said ISP's customers (other than the spammer) any pain? Keep in mind that blocking only the spammer's IP has already been tried.
They start with the IP, then list class C, then widen the number of class Cs. It takes a fucking lot to get expanded. There is less than 1% of the internet listed by SPEWS (after removing IANA reserved space)
I have Brazil, Argentina, Korea and China tagged on my server. Number of false positives: 0. YMMV.
Username/password for URL's is a good one too. Don't remember the test name right now.

Not hing is higher (except undocumented microkernel stufff where you pass Gary Davidians birthday into certain registers and make a special call). By always being root there is no false sense of security, and programming is done carefully.

Let's see...
The blaster fix opened a hole on some systems NT SP5 completely destroyed network connectivity
Tell me again why it should be automated downloads?
The patch that opened a hole in NT4. That patch you mean?
Until MS gets its act together and will guarantee the safety and efficacy of patches (as in they will pay damages if issues with the patch) or completely stops releasing patches that cause as many problems as they solve, they will continue to share some of the blame for people not patching when it comes out.
If you can do that, you already 0wn the machine and there's no need to pull all that crap. Just rewrite GINA passing to the original one. Done.
It's not?
And of course, my son shoots up a car. So I sue Rockstar for making GTA.
By taking the ISP's cutomers hostages .... in real life taking hostages is a crime, and should be so in cyberspace as well !
So, if I boycott somebody, I should buy from them?

Oh, they don't? Burtonhosting.com isn't listed in SPEWS (or anything else that it checks for that matter) according to samspade.
So, what IP block are you in that's listed so people can determine for themselves why you're talking out of your ass.

More secure?
Then they've changed their policy.

You can get zone files here
All you need is the stethescope, seriously.
Hell you don't even need that.

The DMCA has provisions excluding reverse engineering for interoperability. Different client sounds like interoperability to me.
Those are real. MS doesn't know how to run a mailing list.
