These are the 64 IP addresses that I current block on my websites. They include 50 that are responsible for more than 12,000 attempts at leaving bogus comments on my site just since I started blocking IP's that were leaving spam. I ran each through "dig -x" and have posted either the "answer" domain or the SOA domain. The latter aren't the owners, but they seem to run crappy networks.

The sad thing is, with this group of 64 now prevented from obtaining a response from my web server, another group will "rise to the top". All the while, I'm cutting random IP's off from my domains. The Internet is broken.
