be having this conversation.

wasn't yahoo's abuse team disbanded years ago?

It was cut way back, but they still have a few very very overworked
people.  I'm sitting next to one of them at a meeting.



Sorry.  Full disk, plus being out on medical leave for
a month meant my NANOG mail stopped flowing;
hadn't seen anything since April.  Got the disk
taken care of.  Won't be able to catch back up
on what I missed, but will be keeping my eyes
open for new threads.  Not one of the people who
can say anything publicly about the situation; but
people *do* care, they really do.
