Recently I have had a deluge of junkmail, and I have a
pretty good idea
who it is. One of emails (below), from
, included the IP
address of the person who subscribed me.
I had a hunch, considering, one, a lot of it is right-wing U.S. and
Israeli email (of which related articles I've been editing lately) and,
two, it's the first junkmail I've ever received at this address. So I
plugged the address into Wikipedia and whatta ya know, a probable sock
puppet who has been especially abusive to me recently:
:
Contributions&target=155.84.57.253
You might also like to check out some of the sock puppet's responses to
requests to stop vandalism and 3RR:
I also did a geographic trace on the IP and they're from Houston Texas.
Can this IP address be permanently banned or something? Is there anyone
who can check the address against other usernames?
