Blacklists concept
What are Blacklists?
The Blacklists or blacklists are all those created with the purpose of grouping the IP addresses, email addresses and domains that carry out harmful practices for users such as the mass sending of spam and others uncomfortable for the public. It is the main way to combat the misuse of technologies for invasive and annoying purposes.
In order to incorporate an address of any type in this type of list, the starting point of the procedure is generally the complaint by the user or group of users who receive spam. By not giving consent to receive these types of messages, the practice is automatically denounced so that the different companies automatically block the sending email address and, therefore, cannot act.
It seems like an easy procedure, but it can sometimes lead to some confusion. Some small slippage sending emails or a misinterpretation by the corresponding bots can bring with it an unfair penalty for an email address that has not violated any rule of good behavior, which would force the owner to act to get out of the black list in question.
Blacklists are part of a mechanism that, at the same time, with the recent modification of laws at the European level, has gained special importance. The massive sending of emails to people who have not given permission to receive them is an increasingly persecuted practice that triggers, in most cases, the use of black lists.
What are Blacklists for?
Blacklists serve for a cleaner Internet free from abuses and annoying practices for users that move through it. In practical terms, it is the best way to prevent consumers from receiving annoying emails or with content of dubious legality and origin.
Its main task is to prevent those accounts that abuse the links, that annoy users with information they do not want or that even endanger the integrity of their devices with malware or viruses, cannot act again due to a veto imposed by the main providers of mail systems.
Examples of Blacklists
If, for example, from NeoAttack We will begin to send emails to both our customers and those who are not with a continuous bombardment of data, offers and other types of content, the account from which these shipments will be made, as well as the entire domain of emails belonging to our signature, it would become part of a blacklist.
Platforms such as Microsoft or even Google with Gmail have their own lists to identify all those profiles reported.
