A new approach to DNSBL might be considered, where there is a peer-to-peer sharing (authentication, scoring whatever) that mirrors content -- something of that nature, whereby the hackers would basically have to DDos the entire internet to prevent its use. Not sure how such a framework could be reliably implemented; anyone else have ideas.
A P2P DNSBL? interesting. I've also thought about this a little since the death of Monkeys but also have no idea about how this would be implimented, but certainly the model of something like direct connect could work. Whereby a registration to a service would be required before a seed is released. Once the seed was realized, the new participating DNSBL could learn from that seed other DNSBLS, and replicate the data, and then (maybe?) do the RBL lookups locally.
Obviously, the file (zone) transfers involved would be reasonably large (anyone have any ideas on who big a DNSBL from someone like SpamHaus would be?)
