Given the number of fly-posted adverts for "grate oppertooneries to wurk at home" that have cjb.net domains, I'm inclined to assume that there's nothing worth visiting at a cjb.net site. Couple that with the recent "Playstation Underwear" Usenet spam that was also based on Usenet, and it's clear that they'll give an FQDN to anyone. Of course, couple it with the fact that "Playstation Groundunder" also placed a follow-up spam to declare that their ISP had "been a real bitch" and removed their site, it's possible that cjb.net ain't quite a black hat.
