These guys sure like to play cat and mouse games.
Bayesian filters like Spam Bully http://www.spambully.com/ can filter these kinds of messages I have found on my office computer.
This guy is just a sacrificial lamb to send a message loud and clear to other spammers. I suppose time will tell if it has any effect.
Many of these folks are offshore so it may make no difference unless we get serious about going after the ones offshoring.
I'll be interested to see if the sentence stands on appeal or if it gets reduced or thrown out entirely.
Personally,I want to see them get tougher on spyware. That stuff is evil. I know spam causes productivity issues and clogs ISP's but some of the latest spyware stuff I've had to endure has been just plain vicious.
Anyhow, I'm sure if Jaynes goes to jail he won't be teaching computer classes.
Has anyone seen Spam Roast? http://www.spamroast.com/ Kind of a funny little mocking site with someone writing replies to their spams. Good for a laugh or two.
