- Scoundreller 3y agoTheir arguments are the same that any other layer involved could use to sit it out. “We shouldn’t be the police, let some layer above or below us be the police, just anyone but us!” What they don’t really say is that an abuse team costs money to run. When self-regulation doesn’t work, you risk ending up with legally-imposed regulation. I’m sure that will really delight them.

All of these are better choices to report abuse than let’s encrypt provided free ssl that’s open for any one to use. I would place that at the level of a phishing site using nginx who could realistically add code to block a list of phishing domains somewhere in their code because it might be used by phishing sites - just no.
