Russian Anti-Spam Advisor Accused of Spamming

Keith noted that Krebs has an interesting story on a Russian businessman being accused of running a spam ring while serving as an anti-spam adviser to the Russian government. It's a strange tale including an investigation in 2007 that was abandoned when the chief investigator was actually hired to work for the spammer. Not suspicious at all, no way.

    See, here's the difference: In America, the government guys are a bunch of crooks. In Russia, the crooks are a bunch of government guys.
