Spammer, Anti-Spammer Involved In
Lawsuit Will Hold Public Debate

Spammer, Anti-Spammer Involved In
Lawsuit Will Hold Public Debate 05/20/2004 11:41 PM
Julian Haight, the founder of anti-spam service SpamCop, and Scott Richter, the founder of spamming service OptInRealBig, are currently in the middle of a fairly nasty legal battle over whether or not SpamCop can block OptIn's spam. Still, the two have agreed to appear together in public and debate the topic. Both of their lawyers say that the debate will avoid the issue of the lawsuit, but as the article points out, that seems unlikely. The thing is, in listening to what both sides have said over the years, you already know what they're going to say in this debate - and they're talking at cross purposes. The spammers focus on their right to make money, while everyone else talks about their right to be left alone. The problem with the spammers' position is that they don't have the right to make money. They have the right to try to make money, but if it involves pissing everyone off, and everyone decides to create and use filters to make email bearable again - then that's their right too.

Los Angeles Times - WASHINGTON — As they settled into first class on American Airlines Flight 1438 from Chicago to Miami, they were supposed to be the last line of defense against terrorists — two highly trained U.S. air marshals who would sit unnoticed among the ordinary travelers but spring into action at the first sign of trouble.

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling 04/07/2005 05:39 PM
Antigua has been battling the US for some time over the US's ban on online gambling. For many years, Antigua-based online casinos have run into problems with US laws. Two years ago, they went to the WTO claiming that the US ban on online gambling was a violation of a fair trade agreement the two nations had signed. It took the WTO almost exactly one year to point out that Antig ua was probably right. Of course, that wasn't acceptable for politicians who seem to think gambling is pure evil (except, of course, when it contributes to local tax coffers) -- so, while they planned to ignore the ruling completely (we're the US, we don't follow international rulings unless we agree with them), they did file an appeal, just for fun. It turns out that appeal worked, and the WTO has changed its mind, saying that banning gambling is a "moral issue," and therefore not subject to the fair trade agreement the two nations signed. So, sorry for all you online gambling addicts in the US, but you're back to breaking the law again.

Backup Hard Drives: CMS ABSplus And
Maxtor OneTouch Offer Easy Backup And
Easy Storage 12/19/2003 11:33 AM
Both drives do a fine job of simplifying backup and providing external storage space. The ABSplus is a focused backup device that's easy to use, right out of the box, for backup and restoration, whereas Maxtor's cheaper and quieter drive is better for people who want extra disk space and more backup flexibility.

In a mix of true detective work and a little high tech knowhow, a Wi-Fi spammer is caught while sending out pornographic spam over an open wireless access point. The one thing that caught my eye is there is really nothing explaining how the perpetrator was caught in the first place. Is this to be kept as a well guarded secret?…

Spammer discussion

Spammer discussion 01/12/2004 01:53 AM

Blog and guestbook spammers are discussing spam techniques in this Usenet thread found by Andy Baio.

It’s an interesting read. One of the main characters is a moron who shows his ignorance at every turn. There are many claims that what they are doing is Search Engine Optimization (SEO). There are legitimate SEO companies, and there are guys like these. If you are hiring a SEO company, make sure you know what techniques they are using or you might end up with a site marketed in the same manner as the porn and prescription drug schemes they are discussing.

They also linked to my AP News article on spam. So they know we’re watching.

A spammer in California has been accused of driving around looking for un-secured hotspots and sending spam from the open connections: The original story here is one of those infuriating reads that doesn't mention how the guy got caught. It seems that historically people who have gotten caught for improperly using hotspots have done so by being stupid or unlucky. It's otherwise difficult to track someone down especially if they move around a lot looking for insecure hotspots....

The Phillies Spammer

The Phillies Spammer 01/04/2005 08:49 AM

Trial begins for Phillies fan accused of e-mail hacking: Being a crazy sports fan is one thing. Spoofing the email address of area sportwriters and spamming everyone, apparently, is not.

But yesterday, Carlson sat alone in a federal courtroom in Philadelphia, the accused boo-bird who hijacked the e-mail addresses of area sportswriters and sent out tens of thousands of anti-Phillies cyber-rants in their names.

"Like a lot of people, he was not happy about the fact that the Phillies were not winning," Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael L. Levy said in his opening statement to the jury. "But Mr. Carlson... decided to do something more. He launched an electronic attack against the Philadelphia Phillies and Philadelphia Newspapers Inc."

They're charging him with identify theft under federal law. He sent 100,000 emails, one of which resulted in 60,000 bounces to a local sports columnist.

Continuing in my quest for a spam-free mailbox, I have become more and more interested in the way(s) spammers collect their victim's addresses. In fact, I routinely receive junk mail in various languages I don't even understand (Chinese, German, Korean, Brazilian, and God knows what else), let alone having any relationship whatsoever with those countries. So I started thinking how the heck some email addresses of mine ended up in those spamming lists.

Lots of people stood up and took notice. What can you do to help stop this infestation? Blacklists and Bayesian filtering come to mind... (Via Smart Mobs)
