Hmm, we provide IP addresses, you guys do something, who gets sued?

There is no offense in this fight, just better defense.
What we have today is way too much pluribus and not enough unum.

I didn't know the Chinese spammer could afford an attorney on 5 cents a day.
And proper "penetration testing" would probably be launched through a Chinese proxy. Just Sayin'.
I just come from the side of the river that claims a good offence is the best defense.

I digress.

They're probably using someone else's IP, anyway. It's what I would do.

Folks, if you find SPAM please don't reply to it. Just use the Report Post button. Replies mean more work to make it go away and there have been cases of collateral damage to responders when the banhammer is used.

Thanks for listening.
