Looks like that IP is also listed by http://block.blars.org/
For exactly the same reason. I would also have considered that would be a
dynamic ip address by the domain and the way its is done.

Who else would not ?

host 63.193.144.218
218.144.193.63.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer 
adsl-63-193-144-218.dsl.lsan03.pacbell.net.

Many people have shouted lots at SBORBS so far on this list.
But at least they are trying actively to fix a problem that needs to be
fixed. Like a few other people are trying todo using dnsbl and spf and some
other methods.

Until the spam problem is fixed the likes of sorbs will always exist. Its
rules are 99% ok for using except for the dynamic IP listings. These don't
seem to make sense because I don't think its possible to get a whole list of
IP that are static and not.

Some people have mentioned sueing and that sorbs is breaking the law ?
Could somebody who has made one of these statement please explain how ?
