Prevention – Bah! Humbug!







Prevention – Bah! Humbug!

Prevention – Bah! Humbug! 12/19/2004 03:17 PM

Prevention gets short-changed when a health care system is under strain according to members of The Science Advisory Board. In a recent Instant Poll sponsored by the Board, 50% of the 1,100+ respondents believe that when medical care is constrained by limited resources, disease prevention and health promotion efforts suffer. An additional 25% of those polled think that adequate treatments and therapies are in jeopardy if funding is at risk. In contrast, participants believe that follow-up services and diagnosis receive the most attention regardless of resource limitations. [PRWEB Dec 2, 2004]

Comment Spam Prevention Goes Nuclear


Comment Spam Prevention Goes Nuclear 12/28/2004 01:10 PM

Elliot Back has come up with the best anti-comment-spam measure I've heard in quite a while.

Taking Matt's stopgap spam solution, which sends precomputed hashes to be echoed back by the user-agent's form, I've added dynamic generation of the md5 hash. Rather than write it to a hidden field, we wait until the form is submitted to compute the hash. This prevents spammers from automatically scraping the form, because anyone wanting to submit a comment must execute the javascript md5.

Here, as I understand it, is the method:

  • Before the form is generated, the server creates a short MD5 hash and includes it in the comment form. It also includes an MD5 hash javascript function in the page.
  • When the user submits the comment form, the original MD5 hash is re-hashed by the browser using the js function, resulting in a new hash. The new hash is included in the post to the server.
  • The server makes sure that the new hash is a proper result of hashing the original hash.

This ensures that the browser end must have executed the javascript code. Pretty slick. Of course, if everyone uses it, comment spam tools will be quickly rewritten to be able to handle MD5 hashing, but until then we could enjoy a little spam-free blogging. Well done.
