If I do actually look at the abuse lists that list the spammer, Twitter - they are sorbs, etc and have a reputation for ethical behavior.. What is interesting is how you & michele defend the spammer One has to wonder whether it is because the fact that Twitter is an evil spammer hurts you guys personally? Or if you are products (have twitter etc) accounts and the truth hurts? If you love the Twitter spammer that much, why do you not try to get the spammer to change their evil ways? Instead of trying to make it about a quarter of all the rbl's being useless, etc. or just plain stupid and obviously false claims that Twitter never sends spam.
