Unfortunately a couple of years ago, a spammer had telstra disconnected from America for a while. I am not sure exactly how it works but I remember he sent out about 2 million emails that went to or via the states. What ever company they connect to in the states unplugged telstra so the rest of the customers couldn't surf. i was one of them. So one inconsiderate scrote fucked up everything for the rest of us. I can see why they take a hard line with spammer.
Thats the basic gist of what happened but as I say I don't know the hows or whys.
