Just because various large ISPs and email providers says something it does not mean that it has to be accepted by society. Or even that anything and/or everything they say in common is correct, accurate or fair in an open,ethical and just society. a singular and simple example would be Google.com When their servers behave abusively they bounce emails to their clients saying that the sender has an error. ethical? - no. fair? - no no evil? - no. decent? - no. nice? - no. do I have to believe and trust the largest email provider on the planet earth, Google? - no. > > On 04/10/16, 8:56 PM, "ox" <andre at ox.co.za> wrote: > > > Just to point out, from your tediously long but eloquent reply, > for clarity: > You claim that trying to define Internet Abuse is asinine > behavior. > To that I respond: I do not agree with you. > > I do not think that trying to define Internet Abuse is behaving > like an Ass. > I do think that not defining Internet Abuse, if we are talking > about Internet Abuse, and even if RIPE or an ISP or a Government is > talking about Internet Abuse, is simply stupid. > > Regarding where we were at about the singular definition of > Internet abuse, as it stood: it still stands. - You could reply to > that still open thread? > > The rest of your diatribe: > regarding Hetzner.de - The whole DMCA came about as a result of > "Internet Abuse" - so abuse at hetzner.de has to enforce the German > eq of DCMA - as Governments themselves are confused about what this > "Internet Abuse" thing actually is. > > And, copyright etc is only one such example.
