SURBL Announcement list [READONLY] wrote:
SURBL has added a report of Most Abused TLDs. This is a daily count of the TLDs most commonly appearing in SURBL data and is an indication of relative abuse levels.
Some interesting numbers, but what might be more interesting is to see the *percentage* of domains in each TLD - .com domains may be highest on the list, but I suspect there are far more .com domains overall as well, and the percentage of abused .net and .info domains is much closer to the .com (possibly higher).

Hi!
Some interesting numbers, but what might be more interesting is to see the *percentage* of domains in each TLD - .com domains may be highest on the list, but I suspect there are far more .com domains overall as well, and the percentage of abused .net and .info domains is much closer to the .com (possibly higher).
Thats a nice suggestion. But its not something we can meassure. I mean, COM has millions of domains, but CN also. And currently we see botnets boosting out CN domains a lot since abuse handling seems very bad there. At least we dont notice anything on that front. And requests of us to get involved there more are so far beeing unanswered.
So anyone with contacts there, please speak up :-)
Thanks, Raymond.
