Yes, this is also my opinion. The community should do something against this abusive behavior. If it isn't done by the community there might be some regulation coming from outside, i.e. political entities. And I doubt that this will be the better way to handle this problem.
I am starting to come around to the opinion that such regulation would actually be preferrable to this. Legislative regulation, at least in democratic societies, imposes responsibilities but it also gives *rights*. Namely constitutionality, the right to have such regulation applied transparently and fairly and, most importantly, the right to judicial review. None of which applies to the vigilante kind of "justice" the proponents wish the RIPE NCC to become the enforcer of. Given these two choices, I know which way I'd vote. rgds, SL
