karmas a bitch, now remove my name from your site to asshats

hopefully they file in the UK also, spamhaus are a bunch of fanatics and block entire IP blocks blocking not only the spammer, but anyone else in the group of IP also.

fuck spamhaus

hahahaha.......wohooo

very good to hear, these cocksuckers cost me some money too although I've never mailed in my life, so fuck them, I hope they inforce that decision

MMmm.... The only problem is the complainants chose the wrong country to initiate an action against Spamhaus - the judgement is meaningless.

Tho sure is time Spamhaus got a kick up the ass - tho they would never be awarded $11mill in damages if they did get the jurisdiction right.

Me too. I was with a host a few years ago and my server got listed by them as a spammer server even though I have never sent an email. I contact the host and they tell me that someone using one of thier servers spamed and got listed and they listed a huge block of IPs including mine. I ended up having to move to a different host. It really was a pain in the ass.

suing a UK company in the US doesn't make much sense. might as well go piss up a rope.

The only thing I hate more then spammers is the fanatical anti spammers. :2 cents:

Would be nice to see someone bring them down. That company has too much power. Something that can have that much influence needs to be regulated.

not again................

"Fanatical" sure is the prime keyword.

I love it, Fuck them and the treehugging geeks that are behind their rinky-dink operation.

inbox time.

good... fuck spamhaus.. they are self appointed net cops... i have no time for them or any other self appointed group that says they control the internet... anyone who disagrees with me will get spammed.... :1orglaugh

about time someone kick them, but its a small amount in compare to what they earn, so they will continue...

if anyone wants a good laugh go to spamhaus and search for gfy.com..

Theres a whole section dedicated to some idiots who "investigate" gfy making all sorts of crazy wil allegations of spamming by jupiter adult.com and gfy ..

And it was all because one of the idiots signed up to gfy and got newsletters in his email box..

yup also when you send out newslestters to affs , and they seem not to be affs but surfers they bitch and shit then you hit em up wtf you are a aff just telling you new galleries and shit is ready they are like "uh uh uhhh " loll

non profit my ass. for 15k or so they won't list your ips. doesn't sound very non profit, more like blackmail.

If they really want to hurt Spamhaus, they shouldn't sue them.

They should sue anyone who uses Spamhaus's RBL (Realtime Black List).

If the adult/Internet marketing community really wanted to make a difference, they'd get together and fight back against these people.

We all know who has more money and at the end of the day, that's what matters.

They seem to be down for me.... anyone else?

Good. I hate those cocksuckers.

it is not meaning less. fuck the $11mil.

this degrades their reputation and credibility to law enforcement world wide

amen......

Unenforceable judgement, no precedant set (default judgement, becuase the defendant never answered) and the defendant has no assets in the US.

It matters so little as to be pointless. At best, an arrogant bully tactic from a potentially spamalicious company.

They should go file in the UK and find out how fast they would lose.

they are a bunch of money hungry scumbags kill the spamhaus project is what i say

lol at default judgement because the moron filled wrong

people read the article first.

If their 'intended goal' was such a noble one (to kill spam), more power to them. Unfortunately it did nothing to detour the big spammers because of the buy-out option, so fuck them up their asses with a rusty harpoon.

Fuck all 'vigalantes' and people with super hero complexes. These sorts of people have serious mental problems.

Agreed. I use their RBL daily and it works well. The mail I have spot checked was indeed spam. Since the government writes anti-spam laws, and then rarely enforces them, Spamhaus performs a useful service.

It not difficult to find a clueless judge these days. Let the many spammers on this board celebrate. This decision is meaningless and does not hurt Spamhaus at all.

I feel exactly the same, they are worse then spammers. AOL has to be the worst. http://www.abbl.biz/aol-complaints.htm

fuck spamhouse, this organazion is a SPAM house in itself....blocking the legit in order to profit themselves and continue their own movement of negative shit


thats karma for you motherfuckers,mmmmmmm enjoy that shit bitches. ENJOY!

I shall reply times two (two time,two time) fuck you bitch ass hoes!!!! :1orglaugh

Tis fairly meaningless sf - even forgetting the fine. Apart from their repuatation is shit anyway among those who know, - law enforcement elsewhere don't give one shit about a court judgement in the US for this stuff. SH never bothered to spend a dime defending the action - why should they?

Oh please, some of you are ignorant as hell. Spamhaus is the biggest joke to ever hit the internet. Their tactics are obnoxious and unethical. Nobody likes them, not even antis. It would be hilarious if they lose 11 mill. Although it won't happen, I wouldn't mind taking a bat to Steve Linford's skull.

What is the point of that link? To show spam complaints on aol? Oh wait, there are none on that site..

i hope they do have to pay the money, damn fuckers :@

But you love everyone.

Sweet! Here's hoping they get a few more in their own jurisdiction.

i hope it will be good........

sure, they would probably lose in the UK but if this company is following can-spam laws they have every right to send out mail and spamhaus is hurting their legit business.

This thread is just further proof that spammers are stupid and of course majority of GFYers are traditionally "SPAM Friendly".

Any ISP or individual can use ANY method they choose to block SPAM or whatever they consider to be SPAM. Following CAN-SPAM laws doesn't mean that the mail cannot be blocked.... Spamhaus is a service that individuals or isp'S may CHOOSE to use.

The Canadians seem to allow spamming the shit out of everyone. Does that mean I have to accept their crap? Hardly , besides, using RBL services like Spamhaus and Spamcop, some ISPs and individuals block individual countries... like China for example.

Spamhaus chose not to defend itself because it didn't have to. The U.S. court has no jurisdiction over them. The douchebags from e360 Insight are still being blocked and still spamming from what I can see.

Kind of amusing to see the usual suspects getting their panties in a wad.

spamhaus can eat my shorts

spamhaus are fucking assholes
