If they filed to have the case tried in the UK, where the chances of it being tossed out as a frivolous lawsuit would have better than having the domain shutdown by ICANN. Especially since if one gets shot down a frivolous in the UK. It sets a precedent that they can use in future cases against spammers. But, this gives spammers the idea that they can sue in the US and if Spamhaus just ignores it. More and more will do the same thing to get them shut down. But, on the plus it does raise questions to the neutrality of ICANN. Or the right of the US to use ICANN as one more tool of pushing it's laws on other countries.
Maybe I have read more on this. But, I was under the impression that they had a chance to file a motion
to have this case tried IN THE UK! So, instead of recognizing the US court's jurisdiction. They could have
had it tried in the UK's jurisdiction. WHERE THEY FELT IT SHOULD BE. Instead of just ignoring it because
they felt the US has no jurisdiction over them. So yeah I didn't RTFA. But to be honest. I've read enough on it.
They should have filed the damn motion instead. End of story.
Why should SpamHaus, a company that as far as I know is Non-profit, waste a boat load of money on a case that has no real jurisdiction on them. They would have spent HUGE amounts of money on getting a lawyer in the US to represent them. In a long drawn out fight that would have taken years to resolve. While I agree that SpamHaus should have filed a motion to have the case tried in a jurisdiction that applies to them. It's bull that ICANN is going to pull the domain of a company outside the US. ICANN should be a neutral body not governed by one countries laws. Besides you'd have to figure that they would have pulled thepiratebay.org by now as well! If they were going to pull this sort of stunt.
I have to agree. It seems non-sensical to even think about it not being an option to filter.
There are some fantastic black lists out there. But, having tools like this tutorial makes
that more stream lined and even able to whitelist senders who are on a RBL. If they actually
have legitimate e-mail to send. Filtering saves users time that can be spent doing their job.
It also prevents other problems, like phising, virus or other exploit from getting to the user. Which saves
me a lot of time. Time I can spend doing other things. Like surfing Slashdot.
What I want is users who sit right next to eachother (ALL 5 OF THEM) to not all call me about the same problem. I heard from the last 3 that were having a problem and I am already working on it. STFU!
The problem being that often times "previews" if you will or company supplied benchmark equipment can be skewed. Just look at the numbers apple
always throws out for performance comparisons. They always end up slightly less when other people do their own benchmarks. Let's also not forget that amd has their AM2 platform due out this summer. IMHO I think amd has been doing a lot of work into developing hardware that will work and work awesomely with DDR2 support. There has to be a lot of looking and reviewing options for the future as well as doing R&D work. So, I still think it's AMD FTW. Or at least that's how I feel about my AMD X2 4400+

So! That's how many physicists it takes to make a "cascade b". I didn't think I was going to ever know the answer to that riddle.

Free with every laptop. 1 container of liquid hydrogen.
I always wondered why "sudo rm -r clothes and sudo kill all lights" never worked in real life.
