I think everyone interested in preserving their personal safety against all odds should take a look at this, just in case you need the information.

...by making people blind, and by shattering their minds with insanity such as the page amongst the many in there which tells you what you should do if you recieve spam from any of the IANA reserved netblocks (yes, that's right, she actually advises you contact the IANA if you get spam from 192.168.0.0/16, and thinks the IANA condones spam sent from these IP addresses.)
