In any event, having reviewed other messages from Mr
Hallam-Baker to the
list, it is clear that he is in major denial on this point. He has
repeatedly tried to blame the blocks of Verisign on others, claiming
Verisign was blocked because UUNET was (without apparently providing
evidence of this and then insisting others provide evidence
that this was
never the case), when in fact it would be more likely for UUNET to be
blocked because of Verisign.
It would be more likely for the block to be listed for the reason
that the blacklist stated, attempting to blackmail us into changing
ISPs through intentional 'collateral damage'.
Furthermore, he consistently pushes as "the only solution",
something that
would (if it were even a desirable approach or possible to implement)
generate more revenue for his employer. How is this relevant?
You suggested
his motive for being here, but a motive-based analysis would
suggest that
his interest is not in stopping spam, but in generating revenue.
Completely untrue, I have pushed every solution except for those
that create as many problems as they try to solve.
Read my paper before you make such demonstrably untrue statements.
Since you are presenting yourself as the self appointed 'executive
director' of what purports to be an international lobbying group
on the subject you might want to think about your obnoxious
behavior. In particular you might just find that the people you
are needlessly antagonizing might have some influence. Hint, who
do you think had the idea of a Whitehouse web site in the first
place?
