  Log:
  The RABL (pronounced "rabble") server is a statistical, machine-automated and
  up-to-the-second blackhole list server designed to monitor global network
  activity and make decisions based on network spread and infection rate -
  that is, abuse from an address which has been reported by a number of
  participating networks. This is in far contrast to how most other
  blacklists function, where fallable humans (many with political agendas) must
  process thousands of reports and make decisions - many times after the fact.
  The RABL is fully reactive to new threats and can block addresses within
  seconds of widespread infection - good to know in this world of drone PCs
  and stolen accounts. The RABL server blacklists addresses until they have
  cleared a minimum duration (an hour by default) without any additional
  reporting, making the appeals process as simple as "fix your junk". The RABL
  is designed to function via automated machine-learning spam filters, such as
  Bayesian filters. Each participating network is granted write authentication
  in the blackhole list, to prevent abuse. A client tool is also provided.
