Why do you believe there is no incentive to run a not-quite-as-good product if either (1) it's a lot cheaper to do that, or (2) doing that provides more revenue (e.g. not listing a large customer who would cease being a customer if listed)? > The other, such as previously done by SORBS, or now UCE Protect, > motivates the DNSBL operator to list as many IPs as possible (1) > for financial profit. Then why not list 0/0 and maximize revenue? Obviously, the willingness of listees to pay for (expedited) removal depends on the amount of usage the list gets, and false positives tend to decrease that usage. There is therefore the same sort of tension between doing what provides immediate revenue and keeping the list going (and, presumably, profitable) in the long term. > (1) UCE Protect claims to have listed a significant number of IPs in the past week: > > Spammer listings within the last 7 days: > Level 1: 1767801 IP's, Level 2: 21354 Allocations, Level 3: 583 ASN's. Last Updated: 01.03.2011 13:01 CET Given automatic 7-day delisting, at least for Level 1, isn't that actually the full size of their list? Their page seems to indicate a decrease in the size of Level 1, which would argue that way. Seth
