Don't put words in my mouth.

I came up with the idea of spamd, and I fully support the idea of
national spam lists.  You might notice that spamd supports layered
blacklists and whitelists.  If you really care, you can start making
white lists for your country.  But no, it is easier to moan and groan
isn't it.

People will use those national blacklists.  And they will use them
because of irresponsibility in those nations.  And the only way for
such nations to get out of this pit is to start becoming more
responsible.  So stop moaning and groaning.  It's pathetic.
