It's what they call a free country 

Those that don't use it don't use it, and those who do are free to do so

Hint: The Internet has a LONG memory.

The liberal and numerous dropping of "for free" makes me laugh. "You" knew the tainted nature of what you were 
buying. Nobody, to this day, places much trust at all in SORBS. I dare say there isn't anyone on NANOG (certainly any 
"long hairs") that haven't had at least one interaction with SORBS, most likely due to spamtraps; that number drops 
to almost zero when you put the word "good" in that sentence. Maybe it's better now under new management; we (the 
royal we) moved on long ago.
