--As of September 9, 2014 3:45:33 AM +0200, Karsten Bräckelmann is alleged to have said:

This incidence is part of the initial round of IANA accepting generic
TLDs. There's hundreds in this wave, and some are abused early. This is
moonshine registration, nothing like new TLDs being accepted in the
coming years.

Or is it? Will new generic TLDs in the future be abused like that, too?
How frequently will that happen? Is it worth being able to react to it
quickly? How long will URIBLs take to list them? How long will it take
for the average MUA to even linki-fy them?

Opinions? Discussion in here, or should I move this to dev?

--As for the rest, it is mine.

New TLDs will always be abused...

Anyway, personal opinion: Spamassassin is currently structured to have code and rules as separate things. Putting this in the code blurs that - it's a rule. Unless there is a major performance penalty, I would move it to be with the rest of the rules. It should make maintenance easier and clearer.
