I agree wholehartedly. But I frankly don't believe that the person
(henceforth "the troll") who did this really will listen to that :/
I imagine the troll is sitting in front of it's computer scovering the
net for high volume mailing lists to subscribe to.
snickering at the sight of npm.general beeing flooded with absolute junk
And I imagine that he will feel the wrath of many, as he has revealed
his IP and time of subscription (as I posted earlier)
it should then simply be a matter of writing a polite and well informed
letter to his ISP (in that one case), and things will happen.
If mozilla.org approaches them, they might obtain his name and address,
and can then do nifty stuff like sending a lawyer by *grin*
but first of all, if everyone on this list who dislikes this abuse by
the troll write his ISP, he will most likely be shout out, and be
blacklisted. I imagine his ISP might have a contract with him that makes
the troll liable for it's crimes. (I'm no law expert, so...)
I encourage everyone who love mozilla to send good letters to his ISP,
with good documentation of his acts.
Once again, for the record, here is the contact information of his ISP,
as revealed by whois;
UUNET Technologies, Inc.
