Yes - the first sentence in the first paragraph. Bear in mind this isn't
a blanket restriction. But when some one abuses our network or our servers,
then our willingness to accept further traffic from them ends. It's really
quite simple. The guy who runs our block system reviews other public
block lists, but someone getting listed on (example) SPEWS doesn't
automatically get into ours. We block people who abuse us. We do follow
the _principles_ that SPEWS uses - holding the listed entity responsible
for their IP space. Continued abuse means wider blocks, and yes we do have
some blocks that have less than eight '1's in the netmask.
