Savvis Grudgingly Get Savvy About Spam

Posted by timothy on from the spammers-deserve-some-of-what-they-get dept.

ElvenMonkey writes "The BBC is reporting that Savvis has finally promised to ditch those accounts that are using its network to send spam, in an effort to reduce the damage already done against its reputation; the CEO promises that all such accounts will be closed within 10 days (working days?) Amongst these accounts are believed to be the majority of the top 150 worst spammers worldwide."

    one of the good things about spam is that it rhymes with everything. I'm serious, give it a try:

    watermelon ... spam
    coffecup ... spam
    toasteroven ... spam

    it even rhymes with itself:
    spam ... spam

    the first time i found out about this, it blew my mind!!!

    ....

    ok, i'm done
