Everyone's probably seen the report by now, citing that in these three
worst TLDs, as many as one site in ten carries a payload of malware.
So, since the kids aren't good at paying attention to such things, I
decided in the interest of safety to block all traffic to and from those
TLDs at the firewall.
Problem: What netblocks to actually block. I managed to find one site
offering a list of .cn and .hk netblocks; the combined total is over
10k, gzipped. There's got to be a better solution than that.
Any suggestions?
