I do the same, but my issue is with rented servers on AWS, Digital Ocean and the like. There's no way of knowing who owns a rented IP address, the WHOIS record just outputs "US", which is meaningles.
I think there's an need for forcing service providers to group IP blocks by the nationality of who rents them.
Just to be clear, this is in the context of my private servers which host my mailserver as well as my personal website which is not meant for public consumption, but which I need to be publicly available.
Depends on the country the cloud provider is located in. I have had zero luck getting anything taken down by reporting to abuse emails or forms of Aliyun, for example.
I have had much better luck with US or EU based cloud providers. In particular, I remember DigitalOcean being very responsive.
Alibaba Cloud? I actually would’ve expected better from them! Never had to report anything myself, seeing how I’m probably blocking them.
I recently had contact with AWS about spam sent using SES and found the response times very quick and the replies appropriate (they’ll look into it but cannot report back, what I expected anyway). This particular spam stopped coming, but that could be a coincidence.
