This is from their web page:

"In general, an entire netblock is added rather than just a single IP or
customer of a larger ISP. (For example, if hugeisp has a /16 that they
allocate a single /24 to spamcustomer, the /16 will be listed rather than
just the /24.) An entire ISP may be added if they show a pattern of
rejecting valid spam complaints for invalid reasons."

Our local hospital just contacted me (they are not a customer, but I know
their IT guy) that they were blocked by blars.org. They could not even get
to their web page! It seems they are an innocent victim of the above policy
of blocking the whole /16. I would urge anyone using this BL to stop using
it as this gives blocking it's undeserved bad reputation.

Now to see if I can help our hospital out...
