Ran, does your company make it routine practice while working on behalf of
recruiters?
AFAIK none have used IETF data inappropriately and ALL of
my current/past employers do have a practice of telling
recruiters explicitly not to violate AUPs (e.g. IETF's AUP)
and not to engage in spam.
And is it any of the IETF's business?
Yes, if they are abusing any IETF list (not just this one)
or are abusing online IETF information about participants
and email addresses (which is actually what was claimed).
The only spam sent to this alias...
You misunderstood. The claim wasn't that ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org was
spammed but rather that other IETF data was used to create
a spam list by a headhunter. This violates the AUP for
the meeting attendance data, for example.
