The problem here was, spamhaus painted ALL opennic peers with a broad
brush. So those that won't filter anything, which I fully support,
could potentially affect everyone.

As many, if not most of us here appear to believe, this project has
always been about freedom with collaboration via a touch of democracy
(voting) thrown in. And I believe that everyone can (and will) do as
they please.

But... and so to repeat, those that filter nothing (including malware)
could affect all of us. And like the .free domain, I don't care and
would have preferred to keep it under openNIC. But, not everyone
agrees with what I think. lol So filtering, at least for malware,
certainly could be suggested as a strong guideline or recommendation.
And my opinion with anything else, obviously leave that to the
individual T2 hosts.
