This directory contains an email exchange with Nominet, the .uk ccTLD
registrar, in which they make it clear they expect the privilege of
running the .uk TLD but are not willing to accept the concomitant
responsibility for abuse involving .uk domains, which provoked me to
block .uk completely.  (I later punched holes in the block for .ac.uk
and .gov.uk, upon being told by a source I mostly trust that those two
subdomains are not run by Nominet.  I've also seen approximately no
abuse involving them, and until and unless I do see such abuse and find
them as intransigent as Nominet, I'll leave the holes in place.)

If you have reason to think Nominet's position has improved (as
compared to the position they express in this exchange), I would like
to hear about it.  I don't like having to block a whole ccTLD - or even
most of one.
