[anti-abuse-wg] Hold time for abused address space - DNSChanger IP's reallocated

 >Blacklists exists for a reason, the reason is that spam has been 
neglected for so long and so little has benn done by those that _should_ 
take action.  This very group is a good example, once created to fight 
spam, but when very little got effected the list was renamed to 
anti-abuse. Today it deals mostly with whois-enhancements.

Spam is one of many problems facing Internet users and I have never 
heard that spam is "neglected."  You just have spam as a pet peeve so 
you disregard all the other problems and think everyone else should 
too.   Spam is a problem but so are people running around haphazardly 
blocking Internet traffic.

You brought up another interesting point.  This group is called 
anti-abuse but there is no real definition of "abuse" and even if there 
were this list doesn't really do anything to stop it.  Maybe the name 
should be changed to whois standards or something like that.
