Fort Myers, FL | Block by country This is probably why some ISPs like Verizon end up blocking entire countries |

| Using what threshold? If one person in country X sends out a Spam, should your ISP block the entire nation of X? Now that would amount to a no-Internet condition as they would most likely be blocking your native country, too. |

Only Verizon would know, I have no idea what they use. There was some posts here a while ago about them blocking Europe. Either someone at Verizon made a mistake. Or they blocked them as a quick tempfix to mass email viruses coming from there. I just know it has happened in the past. Even the company I work for, once blocked China and Taiwan because of the amount of spam coming from those two countries. |
