Keep in mind that these things are used by people living under > oppressive regimes as well as obnoxious adolescents. Like all things there are pros and cons to such endeavors. There is a large difference between anonymity in the face of tyranny and anonymous adolescent abuse. Although the adolescent believes they live under the former, in my little part of the internet I am searching for a way prevent the latter. Unfortunately the only methods I have discerned can also be used impinge upon the anonymity of a freedom fighter. So far in my search have found several DNSBL type lists that offer lookups against abuse lists. This may be a stop gap method at registration to prevent obvious exploitation. http://www.ahbl.org/ - offers a Tor proxy and IRC proxy abuse list. http://www.dronebl.org/ - is used as an IRC abuse lookup. http://www.sectoor.de/tor.php - a Tor proxy abuse list. I may be on a fools errand but there must be some way to allow easy access to an adolescents forum yet still maintain some accountability by being able to prevent trouble-free abuse through a web proxy.
