Wilcox; nanog () nanog org Subject: Re: Mitch tries to defend his open relay again (was Re: ORBS (Re: Scanning)) There is one lesson to learn from this. We have reached a stage where the rights of an individual or entity to existence in cyberspace need to be protected under the law. You may take the lead in applying democratic principles that follow the real world laws, or the legislature will do it ad hoc.
So, if Uncle Sam comes along and decides that open relays are illegal, would you _finally_ reconfigure your mail server? As I'm sure you're aware, there are two sides to government intervention in anything, and until the government intervenes, you don't know if it will be favourable or not to your attitude. If it isn't, then should we expect www.dotgovon.com criticizing the government for siding with the "evil Vixie conspiracy"?
