And you pay taxes to a country that is participating in international organizations whose agenda ends up degrading foreign cultures and bombing foreign houses. Even if you're against it, you're supporting it. So, does that make it ok for agents of those foreign groups to blow up your buildings?
No.
What SPEWS is doing is of the same category. They're deliberately taking actions that they know affect "citizens" and not just "nations".
And you're defending that type of logic.
Actually changing ISP's is a lot easier than getting a new citizenship in a new country. While I would never use SPEWS to block email, I am more than happy to use it to add extra points to SA listings.
It's a tool like any other, and while they may be a little harder than most I do agree with their raison-d'etre. If you want to do business with a known spam hoster, feel free, I just don't have to accept email from you. Oh, and BS on the multi-year contracts, if they aren't' supplying you with what you payed for, you can get out of your contract.
If citizens of the country know what the leaders are doing is BAD, then they should leave or revolt. We aren't talking about Iraq or Iran here, people can leave their ISP's without being killed or en shackled and they should. If enough people left the spam hosting ISP's part of the problem would go away.
Court cases in this instance would be good, rack shack as a case in point.
