It's a basic mistake to operate on whole netblocks and not individual

Let me ask you something very straight forward.
How much do you pay Google so that you can e-mail their users?
I know you don't have a service contract or agreement with me to deliver
your messages to myself or my customers.
Since I have $0 to work with when it comes to supporting you and your
e-mail server, that equates to the amount of time I can realistically
spend dealing with you.
Now. I may be nice and give you 5-10 minutes of my time, but if that
time only allows me to see that:
1) you are on OVH, a VM provider that has issues like most of them do
2) You are using a free subdomain provider (eu.org)
3) Someone (possibly you, but can't be sure if its related to you or
not) spammed me from your netblock
By that point, because the spam/fraud/malware already used up a bit of
my time to block in the first place, I'm less inclined to spend more
time on the issue.
Yes, I'm being excessively harsh by saying the above. Yes, I'm an
asshole. No, I'm not normally like the above and I tend to give people
a lot more leeway and understanding.
HOWEVER, not everyone has time to spend out of their day catering to
people who they have no established business with. Google I imagine,
while they have an abuse team and the like, probably has a lot bigger
issues to deal with.
In other words, while you may be a big hot shot in your world/mind, you
aren't shit to Google... Just like the rest of us aren't shit to Google
when it comes down to it either.
