Don't be offended by an opinion and don't read further into it than it is.

The title says it all. I am totally against Spamhaus and think they are terrorists by every definition of terrorism. I do not, however, extend that feeling to the global spam fighting community. So don't think this is about anyone outside of Spamhaus. And BTW, I am not even in the mailing industry any longer, I am in the gamer markets now.

Subject: One of our greatest freedoms is the freedom from fear
Date: Thu, 24 Nov 2011 04:52:16 -0800 (PST)

Fear is built upon a structure of a private agenda 
Fear is by created by authority without regulation 
Fear is manifested by the harm of others 
Fear is controlling a population with ambiguous actions and even more ambiguous intent 
Fear is met with hesitant obedience 
Fear is resisted by those with the least to lose and the most to gain... 
FEAR IS SPAMHAUS and Resistance is the only way to defeat fear!

Subject: Just an Observation

I am writing this in a way that I hope does not cause backlash or
brutality; as those are 2 qualities that have historically been
overwhelmingly high from some members of this group.

I was attacked for a long time due to my personal opinions about
Spamhaus and their wrongful ways. In that period of time I pointed
out that Spamhaus has very little respect from ISPs and very much fear
of loss in revenue due to not being able to deliver mail to Gmail
accounts. We all know that fear and respect may appear the same to
the irrational and villainous people (such as Spamhaus) but to the
rest of us...it is just fear!

Over the past 8 months I have been recording the ISPs and internet
users that have openly spoke out against Spamhaus and their improper
blacklisting procedures. The amount of these reports is staggering.
It is so exorbitant that I had to present my findings to our
government. I can only pray that The Untied States Government adheres
to the reality that Spamhaus is not the answer, but rather the
problem.

I have relieved myself from he duty to report on findings and have
moved into an entirely different market of interest at this time.
Since email is not my current interest and I have found successes in
another market; I have no reason to continue pursuing Spamhaus'
demise. I have, however, managed to reach a large group of internet
users with a question they all must ask themselves; "Are private
blacklists operated under the guise of freedom freedom at all?"

"That only issue with that is that I have never been a spammer.
Never once have I been accused with evidence of spamming.
Not once has there ever been a spam message deployed from my servers......"

And there are lots more posts of the same vein in this thread

After the attempted reformation.................

..............Andrew Stephens is back!

After an all to short break and an attempt find alternative legitimate employment, Mr Stephens seems to have slipped back to his wayward and wacky ways.

Just as a reminder, let's have a look at his Spamhaus ROKSO listing.
As at December 9th, it stands as following :-
