Ok, I don't know if anyone has ever mentioned this before, but...I don't understand how spam can be profitable for the companies that use it as advertising. I never have and never will buy anything or sign up for anything that is sent to me via spam. Someone needs to start a campaign or something, getting out the facts. Letting the general population know to NOT buy what gets spammed to them, not clicking on the links. If noone buys the stuff, or clicks on the links...then the companies are wasting money. Get ads on TV like the "The Truth" ads about cigarettes... Don't let the spam win!
