I certainly agree that there are hundreds of small DNSBLs run from kid's bedrooms which list on incomprehensible wildly over-broad policies and that such DNSBLs are both antagonistic and useless and as a result are used by almost nobody - that's 'market force'. But to pretend that the
dozen major DNSBLs make listings based on "unauthenticated rumor" or
"because the IP did not have 'mail.' or 'mx.'" is just silly mud- slinging itself based on equally "unauthenticated rumor" and is especially odd if
it's coming from within IETF itself.
