An organization dedicated to reducing spam tried to get Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) in Asian countries to stop the spammers by protecting their mail servers. When this effort was unsuccessful, the anti - spam organization put the address of these ISP’s on its “blocked list”. Many ISP’s in the Philippines consulted the blocked list and refused to accept email from the blocklisted ISP’s. This action had two results. First, the amount of spams received by the typical email user in the Philippines dropped by 25 percent. Second, ten of thousands of innocent computer users in the East Asian country were unable to send email to friends and business associates in the Philippines. QUESTIONS:
1. Did the anti-spam organization do anything wrong?
2. Did the ISP’s that refused to accept email from the blocklisted ISP’s do anything wrong?
3. Who benefited from the organization’s action?
4. Who was hurt by the organization’s action?
5. Could the organization have achieved its goals through a better course of action?
