How does refusing service to known spammers/spam operations make you any less of a legitimate U.S. corporation?

I assume that trying to get anything shut down at BL is a waste of my time. A majority of the people posting on this thread seem to also attest to this point. Just because you're proxying to other networks does not make you unresponsible for their activity. > > You're quite fortunate to be under the protection of a major > corporation, most do not have that luxury. I am not under anyone's protection. DroneBL is, but I no longer operate it due to it being a timesink. Nor should my opinions reflect them in any way. I just wanted to make it clear that I am aware of what it is like to be under permanent DDoS attack. William
