Personally, I think there is wiggle-room between what Gadi surmises
(persoanlly, I think he is playing Devil's advocate), what everyone
else may surmise as an effort into nothingness, and what Vixie
professes (if anyone bothered to read what he forwarded -- I did,
and very much agree).
I actually think there is _a_lot_ which can be, and should be, done.
Turning a blind eye is unnacceptable, and right now, ISP's are in
the spotlight w.r.t. doing just that:
There is _major_ room for improvement, so I guess the relevant
question becomes: Are people part of the problem or part of the
solution?
What's the measuring stick?
