AWS is probably the biggest cloud provider in the world. Of course the majority of junk is going to be coming from their network, simply because they are that big.
This is incorrect reasoning. Because they're the biggest cloud provider in the world, they should send the least amount of junk: the larger an operation is, the easier abuse detection/prevention gets. [1] They have -- for all practical purposes -- unlimited computing resources, unlimited personnel resources, and unlimited financial resources. Shouldn't they be leading? Shouldn't they be more professional, more competent, more diligent than all of us? Shouldn't they be the exemplar for How To Do It Right? ---rsk [1] I don't expect them, or anyone else, to catch everything all the time. There are always unpleasant surprises. But there is absolutely no excuse for systemic, chronic abuse, for failure to accept abuse reports, for failure to respond to them quickly, for failure to act on them promptly, for failure to prevent repeat incidents, or for failure to apologize.
