An international non-profit organisation devoted to fighting spam has accused US telecommunications provider Verizon of aiding cybercriminals by routing millions of IP addresses through its servers without properly checking the identities of those who wanted to set up the route.

 

The Spamhaus Project is an international organisation based in London and Geneva that maintains a real-time blocklist of the internet's worst spammers and works with internet service providers (ISP) and law enforcement to identify them and get them to stop.
