I rarely post, but that is clearly a problem. The Americans seem to believe in the presumption of guilt and the infallibility of accusation. As an American born and bred I can hardly be accused of bias. Clearly spam is a serious problem in terms of draining network resources, but organizations like Spamhaus don't even do an investigation. Maybe this new American mentality explains Guantanamo Bay. Roderick S.

I can testify as to some registrars (enom, godaddy, tucows, etc.) being very responsive and some registries (read .info) being very cooperative.
OBVIOUSLY this is not the case for everyone.
If "being cooperative" means "shoot immediately any presumed-to-be-innocent each time a random vigilante asks you so", I hope that the ".fr" registry is uncooperative.
