Nobody is going to power down those sites. They are going to take them out of
the maps. He's not being a dictator, he's being a janitor, cleaning up after
sloppy people. The map data is used to route mail. The presence of an entry
in the map says that the site has responsible people running it, and that it
is ok to route mail through it. If a site doesn't answer repeated messages,
then it is not OK to route mail through that site, and it should be removed
from the maps. There is no law that says a site has to be responsible, but if
they aren't, they shouldn't relay mail for other people.
