 Why doesn't someone at Spamhaus block godaddy requests for the PBL, until
 they get their act together?  If they are using the PBL inappropriately,
 or outside the terms and conditions set forth by Spamhaus fur use of the
 PBL, then Spamhaus has full control here.

 I'm sure goDaddy is paying Spamhaus for access to the PBL, so it might be
 problematic, but I think Spamhaus should have a policy that if someone is
 misusing the PBL, the PBL will be blocked until the PBL is being properly
 implemented.

 Get it together, Spamhaus, help us out.



If I use the PBL (or any other list) to stupidly block on my own
customers, why should spamhaus care? I'm sure they have better things to
do that babysit people who may or not be using it inappropriately (for
whoever decides to define "inappropriate").
