There's no way to 'strike back' via email with spoofing being so prevelant.
For spam (caught by a filter lets say) that request resources from a URL or multiple URL's:
1) Generate 10-100X the number of requests to same URL or URL's
2) If large number of spam messages are sent, the reposnse will be equivalent to a Denial of Service attack. No meaningful response will be possible.
3) If the message was mistakenly identified as spam, then the response will be quite manageable and no harm done.
But...
4)A malicious spammer could send a large spam distribution with URLs that point to 'other' sites, thereby launching a DOS attack on anyone of their choosing.... hmmm.....
Oh. well... I thought I had something there...
Maybe keep an extensive list of 'No big repsonse load (DOS attack) here' sites???
Has anyone run the list of subpoenaed userid's against slashdotters ids? It wouldn't be perfect(and possibly very innacurate I grant you), but I'd just wonder how many match.
Sing, sing a song. Make it simple to last the whole day long. Don't worry if it's not good enough for anyone else to hear, just sing, sing a song.
Perhaps we are seeing the first good evidence that copyright is too contrived in a changing world of open ideas. I hope patenting software falls next.
So I was at work and I was humming a song. As I finished, the guy next to me started humming the same song and I couldn't help but wonder.
Had I illegally transmitted that tune and was a subpoena waiting for me in the mailbox at home?
Hmm. hmm.. hmmm.. WAIT! Don't listen!
Hey TNG is -the- trek series IMHO. Enterprise, however, has been growing on me and has become a close 2nd.
As for growing, I predict the Borg will arise from some extension of the Vox Sola episode where everybody trapped in that creature was sharing each others thoughts.
Is it just me or does...
"...it also features partial Amiga application binary compatibility!"
sound a little like:

O.K., me too. How about we call it the 'STBTWWW' or soon to be the world wide web. In fact, I'll offer two nodes here.

Earnie never got a penny for that little gem. They played him like a puppet.
... so do casinos. They too are big and not built on those who have won.

Too bad, I guess. They lost my attention after three bad rio800 units in a row. Service sucked. See yah Sonicblue and don't bother writing.
