The problem is, running any blacklist and wanting to constantly speak to
people who are often just confused about how relevant your list even is,
are very often two different things. So there's not anyone to talk to,
at least not from a public-facing angle. It would certainly be nice if
anyone on this list that might be representing SEM wanted to speak up on
the matter. This sounds to be a case worth speaking up on.
I found myself wondering if there was anything like the Better Business
Bureau or some sort of accreditation that RBL operators can apply for
wherein they need to:
- demonstrate that they are responsive
- publish what is required to be delisted
- provide points of contact
The intention being that an RBL operator is taking steps / effort to be
genuinely good.
Yes, mistakes and accidents happen. It's how those mistakes and
accidents are responded to that make all the difference.
I'd wonder if someone like M3AAWG or the likes could fulfill this function.
If such an accreditation existed, then perhaps various filtering
software providers could default to only enabling accredited RBLs.
I hope it goes without saying that I would want it to be relatively easy
to become accredited. I suspect it would need to be even easier to have
such accreditation revoked.
All players start somewhere small and some grow into big players.
