Spamhaus are indeed liars and a source of network abuse. Their lists are tainted by spite listings and the ignorance of their volunteers. But spamming to get the word out? You’re certainly less damaging to the Internet than Spamhaus is, but you’re twice as stupid as they are.
]]>– Spreads slander about isps and their customers
– Infringes on peoples privacy
– Sends spam itself (their “abusemails” are undesired bulk email just as well)
– Blackmails ISPs to comply to their rediculous “demands”
– Actively pushes ISPs to let Spamhaus use their networks to commit computer sabotage
(hinder communications with specific other computer systems).
– Publicises private details illegally copied from databases
