Even the anti-spam army out there seem to ignore 'This is the abuse contact', and end up spamming all whois org contacts. What's the point in that?
I agree. Most of them end up blasting all contacts which is completely stupid!!! That's why you see on the comment sections with many providers something along the lines of "Please use Abuse Handle or please send requests for DMCA to this handle"
Well, if the community actually did it's job so mail to abuse@ and postmaster@ and similar role addresses actually got delivered instead of bouncing, and then actually did some good rather than being unread/ignored, maybe we wouldn't have to rely on a DNS jockey listed in a SOA record being pissed off enough at being cc'ed on an abuse mail to get a co-worker's butt in gear. Just sayin'.
