[spf-discuss] late comment on spammer DNSes and garbage registrars

2008-10-15 15:40:19
I have complained to registrars that seem otherwise valid but which
sell domains to the same spammers day after day. In almost all cases,
they don't care and don't do anything to get rid of their criminal
clients.

In particular, by now any spammer should know to get their domains
from one of a handful of Chinese registrars - you can tell them in
advance that you'll use the domain for crimes and they'll sell you
the domain anyway. If you look up the domain and it is registered
to a CN (or even HK) registrar, then consider it junk.

I'm going to refer the "Chinese problem" to my senator - the US should
go on record with China that their Internet Crime Orgy must end.
With 70,000+ internet censors, they can peel off 700 of them to combat
internet crime - except the network operators are in many cases
colluding with the spammers, no doubt for a "cut".

I wrote a Milter to combat spam by inspecting the addresses of what it
advertises, which was unstable in situ. So I rewrote the filter to use with
procmail, and what I do is find any reference to a website within the body
of the mail, and if that site lives in a prohibited address space, I reject the
mail.

The list of "prohibited networks" is a "to-do" list of who to chase down to
make them stop HOSTING SPAMMERS. Currently the spammers have found
TURKEY and after sending numerous complaints to istanbultelecom and
ttnet.tr, I've given up on them and consider their address space toxic.
Various domestic places host serial SPAMMERS and should be sued: see
some of the domestics in the list below.

We'd like the world to adopt the "pugnacious ISP" view that spam is not to
be tolerated - and we need to show abusers why: control your network or
it and everything on it will be ignored.

Here is our draconian hit list (for a server not expecting a lot of overseas
traffic.) We don't need ANYTHING from mainland China, for example.
