Wouldn't it be easy enough to ping each suspect network from a machine
that he knows has been RBL'd? Or (in the stealth scenario) send a message
to an autoresponder on each suspected network?
I wonder if he could subpeona the list of RBL subscribers in the interests
of naming them in a law suit. Not that I think he has the financial
backing to actually carry the suit out, but it is a curiosity.
