Rob Shultz,

I didn't start it, your mob friends started it.

... "I'm willing to stake my ENTIRE reputation" ... - Can you confirm or deny 
that you know or don't know the real identify of the key person behind "The 
Spamhaus Project" which is "Mike Anderson" ?

Only Spamhaus members knows the real identity behind "Mike Anderson", come on 
deny or confirm if you know his real identity or not and after it I will write 
his real identify and proof that you know him personally.

Respectfully,
Elad

Elad,

Of course I have to go on public record - for any public accusation (remember, 
you started this). But that is really all I need to do in this case. Everything 
else you mentioned just isn't worth my time/money. (I barely find it worth 
typing this message.) The presumption in your last post is that you're worth 
it. You aren't. But your entertainment value is only improving! Thanks!

Now - if you want to sue me or spamhaus - and have a "discovery phase" where 
your attorneys can legal subpoena the information that would prove or disprove 
- your public accusations - I hate to break it to ya - but you're going to be 
extremely disappointed. (at least with my identity)

FINALLY - in spite of your entertainment value - if I were an admin of this 
list, I'd start asking you to "put up, or shut up" - if only to ensure that 
this list isn't starting to get "spammed" with useless information. I'm willing 
to stake my ENTIRE reputation on the fact that there is no way possible for you 
to prove that I'm "Rob Schultz" from Spamhaus. Because I'm not.

You're either:
(1) lying as some weird kind of practical joke
OR
(2) lying to just try to mess with anti-spam people
OR
(3) sincerely believe this is true, but in that case you'd have to be 
delusional (or something LIKE that)

YES - that is a very serious accusation I just made - with legal ramifications 
- but if you were to sue me over that, there would be no possible way for you 
to prove that I'm "Rob Schultz" - because I'm not - and in a court, "Truth" is 
an absolute defense. No amount of "discovery" in the world will reveal that - 
because it isn't true.

So tell me, why ELSE would you lie about that? Is there another option I'm not 
considering?

But it STILL isn't worth my time/money to sue you.

But in the lawsuit all your secret acquaintances from "The Spamhaus Project" 
will be written, so of course that you will want to avoid it.

You are "Rob Shultz" from "The Spamhaus Project" and we both know that you know 
(personally) many more than 3 members from "The Spamhaus Project", deny it and 
all your secret acquaintances from "The Spamhaus Project" will be written.

You know who is the real person behind "Mike Anderson", only Spamhaus members 
know the  real identity of "Mike Anderson".

Respectfully,
Elad

Subject: [opensource-wg] false accusations about Rob McEwen (from invaluement) 
posted to this list


About once or twice a month, I google "invaluement" combined with looking for 
search results from the past month, to look for recent mentions of 
"invaluement". This not only helps me to gauge interest, it also helps me to 
find rare false positive "signals" that might have been just under my radar. 
Today, I noticed this little gem:

https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/opensource-wg/2020-April.txt

Let me just say unequivocally that I an NOT "Rob Shultz" from Spamhaus. I've 
never even heard of him. If you held a gun to my head and said, "tell me all 
the names of those who work at Spamhaus", on a good day, when my memory is 
doing good, I might be able to come up with 3, and this isn't one of those. (I 
converse with someone there on average less than once per year.... more like 
once per 3 years!) I am fond of Spamhaus and I think they do great work, so I 
actually take this accusation as a compliment! But neither I nor invaluement is 
connected or associated with Spamhaus in any way. We're merely friendly 
competitors. The last time (and ONLY time) I saw any of them in person was at a 
M3WAAG conference in Atlanta in 2015. (I don't get out much!). The last time I 
talked to one of them was at a recent zoom-like "virtual" email conference, 
where that particular session had multiple participants from many anti-spam 
blacklists. But that was rare. Otherwise, I've maybe had 2 conversations with 
them in the past 5 years. We don't share ANY data with each other. Come to 
think of it, we really SHOULD probably communicate more often! I'm actually 
sort of embarrassed to admit here how little I get out and connect with others 
in my industry!

So this post is basically loony. But I did get a good laugh out of it. Thanks 
for the entertainment!
