Pfizer and Microsoft go after Viagra Spammers
Weird_Hock writes "This story from Reuters
tells about the joint effort from Pfizer and Microsoft to go after illegal sellers of Viagra. Pfizer is going after the sellers and Microsoft after the spammers. Looks like they're targeting both sides of the money chain."
There is a horizontal movement of Pfizer and a slight downward movement of Microsoft. What does that suggest about the markets expectation of future distribution of vi4gra?
Past performance does not guarantee future results. (applies to the stocks and viagra)
You still have sex! I guess if you are going with the sex, drugs, and rock and roll theme.
KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!
Well, your post was taken the right way, but since there's no "-5, Extremely unfunny" moderation, the next best option was "0, Offtopic".
No, them I'm pretty sure you took the post the wrong way... NOBODY has a pen1s since they don't exist. You can argue it's an obvious mispelling of the phrase "pen once" but I'll never agree with you that it's offensive in any way, shape, or form.
In related news, simultaneously Earthlink (in an anti-spam coalition with Microsoft) also announced filing numerous lawsuits to hopefully litigate some major spam operations into oblivion.
Winning these cases (and most importantly, many more) against the spammers would be much easier, of course, if the U.S. finally adopted an opt-in requirement as well, stating that there is no way you CAN SPAM, like in the EU where under a new agreement on anti-spam enforcement, one single complaint will now even suffice to send the authorities round to eradicate any remaining spammers' hideouts in 13 Member States at once.
Or...
Pfizer and Microsoft rise to the challenge with barriers erect showing they have the balls to go down on these Viagra spammers.
