Try to ignore it all you want, but the fact of the matter is, spam is here to stay, and unless you want some internet police to start hovering over every single person on the internet, then there's very few ways to prevent it.
So, if saying that makes me flamebait, then so be it, I'm flamebait.
That's exactly my point. It's not like it's going to bring the world to an end if the advertisements extend to SMS.
I just hope it doesn't cost any money to switch SMS ID's, for the sake of the people who start getting more noise than signal. That's what I did with ICQ numbers and emails that were getting too many spams.
Everyone gets spam all the time everywhere they go. If you're going to be one of those stuck up snobs that just has to get SMS service to feel cool, then you should be able to put up with spam there too.
