[anti-abuse-wg] oppose 2017-02 "Regular abuse-c Validation"

Peter

Where in the proposed policy does it say that RIPE is going to de-register anyone?

I can’t see any language for that. All it says is:

“in cases where the “abuse-mailbox:” contact attribute is invalid, the RIPE NCC will follow up with the resource holder and attempt to correct the issue.”

Also, if your abuse-c email address is valid it’ll take you about 30 seconds once a year to validate it. 

Regards

Michele

    STRONG OPPOSITION!
    
    As an operator who has to read abuse-c emails, this is a waste of my
    time.  I have real things to do, instead of bothering with this kind of
    crap.
    
    Responding to RIPE ping mails does not mean an abuse-c will respond to
    emails from non-RIPE entities, nor that a mailbox will keep working
    in-between pings.
    
    This is simply busy work, and has no value.
    
    Additionally, the threat that RIPE will deregister for failure to
    respond is insulting, vulgar, and obscene.
