"Maintained" is a bit of a stretch..  that's mostly the same old legacy list
that everyone uses.  20% of them can be immediately discarded as not even
resolving from DNS.  I already did a lot of work to further filter away
parked domains, closed down services etc.

Also I don't understand why it originally contained stuff like "lat.ms". 
Did latimes.com provide a shortening service for any custom URL?  If not,
why should we care that a message contains "short URL" if it's not abusable
and used in spam?
