Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed
MikeCapone writes "According to an article at Wired News, spammers feel the need to be part of a community too. The Bulk Club is one such community. A message on the site states that it offers, for a $20 monthly fee, a variety of how-to articles, spamming software, a members' message board area, and 300,000 FRESH e-mails/week. Unsurprisingly, the 'Law & Ethics' section is 'Members Only.' The good part is that, because of a glitch, the membership list of this charming organization was left exposed on the website."
I can see how anxious you are to get the first post.
So you're comparing taking all means necessary to protect your own life and the lives of your loved ones with violating all principals of ethics to keep yourself from having to push the delete button a few times?
I think you need a better sense of perspective.
I don't give a shit if they think I'm a spammer. What are they going to do? Flame me? They're doing that anyway. Report me to Harvard (whence I connect)? So what, Harvard knows I'm not a spammer. Hunt me down? I'm aware that they're only joking, even if I'm disturbed by the jokes. Post my address? Fine, I have a filter and a fast connection, I can deal with a few more spams, and you won't find enough people pissed at me to do a Ralsky-style DOS.
I hereby place the above post in the public domain.
Microsoft Sucks! We're all going to the gulags!!
Feel better now?
