Fighting The Spammers Down Under

Posted by timothy on from the squash-foot-squash dept.

An Anonymous Coward writes: "The Sydney Morning Herald is running an interesting article about fighting spammers. It mentions that "Most of today's email spam, however, comes from a handful of culprits, described by Barry and others as &quotknown criminals&quot." Does anybody else wonder who these people are, and what are the odds of having them shut down for good?"

    I just heard the sad news on Socialist Workers radio. Web entreprenuer/pioneer goatse.cx guy was found dead in his home this morning. Even if you never admired his work, you can appreciate what he did for the 'last frontier' of the internet.

    Reports are that he died from complications resulting from "Homosexual Australian Linux Spammers". Truly an internet icon. He will be missed :(

    Boy, I didn't sleep some time and you made my monitor dirty by my own salivas now, so I have to kill you. No really, good laugh.

    But then, what really deleted my smile, was realization of the fact that Microfart, by all his farty wealth, is still unable to overcome this development model. I mean - it's unable to prove it by product. The only product farting out of it is unlimited stupidity.

    Today's tip: Get a life, clerky jerky.
