The open internet is dead. Spammers, fraudsters, and abusers have killed it.
I don't accept that. Nothing about defending against those threats requires the kind of guilt-by-association spam blocking we have been discussing.
There will always be bad people in the world but that doesn't mean we allow some random big business to tell us where we may go, what we may do or who we may talk to because it is in that business's interests and (coincidentally or otherwise) it might make us safer.
