Oh really? Then why aren't Rackspace and Sprint, for example, listed? List
iAdvantage (Asian), but also list Rackspace (USA) and Telstra (AUS). Why
be biased against Asia, when obviously the USA and Western ISPs are the
root?

What do you think now?

Then how come iAdvantage with a hundred or so complaints (and even most of
those aren't complaints... read some), is listed, while Telstra and
Rackspace with their THOUSANDS of complaints go unlisted?
Obviously they are doing something far worse than iAdvantage to have THAT
many complaints? Why be biased against iAdvantage, when it is obvious the
above Western ISPs, and many more, are getting FAR MORE complaints?

No one is saying immune. Like I said... block iAdvantage, BUT ALSO BLOCK
RACKSPACE, and block all the rest of them, REGARDLESS OF COUNTRY, that
spam.
Why should RBLs be biased against Asia? You want fair... block Asia, BUT
ALSO BLOCK the USA/AU/Western ISPs that get lots of spam complaints.
Why should Telstra, Sprint and Rackspace be immune because they are
Western?
