It's just another form of internet racism, with all the problems that
racism has always had:  Ignorance causing harm to others.  Entire top
level domains (or countries, or services, etc.) get discriminated
against, because of the actions of some.  And the "I doesn't cause
problems for me" attitude (i.e. "I am unaware of any problems, so I
think that there are none") allowing it to continue to cause harm to
others.

One might think that Linux users, at least, would recognise the harm
that is caused by discriminating against 98% of the everyone else based
on the behaviour of just 2%.  Or perhaps they wouldn't mind that all
mail from a Linux mail client got blocked, or all Linux web browsers got
blocked, because just a few percent of people use it, and therefore it's
statistically insignificant.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
