Yes, but with SPEWS, you are listed if you share the same ISP as a
spammer.  I help maintain a /27 network (32 consecutive IP addresses)
used by several non-profit .org sites (no spammers!), but we are listed
on SPEWS because there are spammers on other parts of the class C
network (not at the same physical location).  The ISP bill (which is
considerable) is 100% donated by a for-profit company (also not a
spammer), so what exactly are we supposed to do?

In other words, much of the inaccuracy of SPEWS is due to their policy,
not administrative delay or errors.

As an intermediate step, I might be okay with using SPEWS to see how
their individual accuracy rates with the GA, but only as a separate
rule, not co-mingled with other blacklists.  I'd rather just delete them
and I don't see why we should support them.
