All,
Want to clarify a couple of things for the group.
Usage in the customer portal
Yes there was an issue on our side of things that caused graphs to be
empty. That has been resolved by the team.
Free Usage Limits
Some of the language included in our usage terms is vague (on purpose).
Publishing specific limits leads to abuse of systems in Spamhaus' line
of work. A company of 10 to 50 would be hard pressed to hit the average
daily limit that would hit our radar unless they are all in the
business of signing up for every newsletter on the planet. When it comes
to those utilizing free Data Query Service and someone appears to be in
violation they will be contacted by someone at which point there may be
room to reduce query volume (tons of people have misconfigurations) or a
commercial license would be required to keep using. Those that would
likely be exceeding limits would be ISPs, MNCs, Government
Organizations, etc.
Commercial Use
Regarding the wording around commercial use. A company that sells
filtering services, paid services that include mailboxes, threat
intelligence providers, etc. is considered commercial. This is not an
exhaustive list but imagine the point gets across with the examples
provided.
If anyone else has questions feel free to respond to the thread or hit
me up directly.
Thanks,
Stith

And what happens if the amount is exceeded?
I don't know.
I suspect that the query volume is probably verbiage that can be used
to / referenced if / when there is a problem.
I simply looked at my count of messages passing through my system a day.
