The same thing applies here: persistent, systemic sources of large-scale abuse via BCP-38 noncompliance are either:
1. Being operated by clueless, negligent, incompetent people or 2. Being operated by deliberately abusive people
There are no other possibilities. (Note: "persistent, systemic". Transient, isolated problems happen to everyone and are not what I'm talking about here.)
It's difficult to know which of those two are true via external observation, but it's not *necessary* to know: the appropriate remedial action remains the same in either case: stop giving them the means.
So how do we detect these and make sure they feel pain for not doing the right thing. The CIDR report hasn't incurred pain as far as I know, so public shaming doesn't seem to work even in cases where we can detect people incurring hurt on others. So how do we work this? It obviously hasn't worked so far, what do we change to make this work? -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
