Tom,
Thank you for this! It is very interesting that the behavior is intermittent. A

Tom,
Thank you for this! It is very interesting that the behavior is
intermittent. A friend of mine who tested it this weekend saw correct
answers on IPv6 and incorrect answers on IPv4.

Validin, made an interesting observation on this. I am also a Spectrum
residential customer, none of their equipment, run my own DNS server
(pihole).
My DHCP Assigned DNS servers are
2001:1998:f00:1::1
2001:1998:f00:2::1
bash-3.2$ dig -x 2001:1998:f00:1::1 +short

Hi Jason,

I appreciate the response and links. However, I've been told repeatedly by
Spectrum that they're not blocking with Spectrum Shield.

I'm not sure where you saw that message, but I got this message via email
after I submitted an unblock request with Spectrum Shield:
We have reviewed your request to unblock validin.com. This site was not
found to be blocked by Spectrum Shield and should be accessible from your
browser.
Bill is absolutely correct. The spammers lost their case because they
were demonstrably spammers.
No, really they did not. I read the decisions. Have you? Hint: under
CAN SPAM a great deal of spam is completely legal so it didn't matter.

I'm familiar with it.
But I am also familar with many cases were spammers have sued network
operators claiming that they're falsely defamed, so the operator has to
deliver their mail.

Hi Mel,
I appreciate the suggestion. During my earlier research, I'd noticed that
as well. However, the DNS block includes all validin.com subdomains, covering
those on completely different ASNs. It also does NOT affect other domains
that resolve to the exact same IP addresses (e.g.,
I notice from MXToolbox.com that your domain’s IP address is on the
UCEPROTECTL3 blacklist.
This is a notoriously evil blacklist that charges people for removal. This may
be why Spectrum is blackholing your domain. Most respectable ISPs won’t use it.
But Spectrum…
There is no delisting

Howdy,
If you can't reach a technical POC, use the legal one. Your lawyer can
