Finance Spam Passing Drug Spam While
Porn Spam Is Washed Up
05/24/2004 05:37 PMThe latest study on spam trends appears to show that
financial spam is outpacing pharmaceutical spam
- though, honestly, so much of both is coming out that it's really
hard to imagine that this matters at all. Meanwhile, it seems that
porn spam is increasingly less interesting to spammers as the numbers
have been on a noticeable decline for quite some time. No matter
what, though, it appears that CAN-SPAM has done absolutely nothing to
slow down the amount of spam sent.

06/05/2004 07:31 PM I am now getting 2,000+ spams a day. There are 1,440 minutes in a day
The rate of incoming spams is therefore getting close to the interval
it takes me to check my email and dispose of a single spam: By the
time I'm done checking, more spam has arrived. That is the point at
which the spam droplets form a continuous stream. And that is the
point at which no interval of my life will ever be spam-free again....

10/29/2003 01:15 AMWhile getting ready to release more information about our new
service, TypePad, I realized that
there are some basic questions that need to be answered first. We've
been trying to think about what the likely TypePad audience would like
to know and I figured it's probably better just to ask them**.
So, if you're considering using TypePad (See this release for more information) and you have some time
(~15 minutes) today to chat via IM, please read this
entire post and then contact me. I'd like to speak to between
10-15 people.
Update:Thanks all who contacted me!
** I picked dollarshort.org instead of Six Apart or Typepad.com
because I think that my readership is a bit more varied.

concern that by continuing to sell "Unfit for Command: Swift Boat
Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry" as a work of nonfiction,

legislation is becoming popular, one result is that spammers aren't
wasting time with just spamming mortgage offers and ways to buy
Viagra. Instead, now that they realize they're definitely on illegal
ground, they're
moving more towards malicious attack spam, including phishing
attacks and trojan horse attacks. In other words, if they're going to
break the law with spam, they figure they might as well go all out.

Report from the spam/anti-spam summit
04/09/2004 04:05 PMDanny O'Brien has written up one of the first summits between spammers
and spam-fighters for the Guardian. It's a great piece.
Surprisingly, no such shootings occur. It's oddly intimate, watching
the spammers and the anti-spammers mill around each other like this.
It feels like a temporary ceasefire in a vicious war that to most of
us seems to be a stalemate...
Over the past year, though, a series of meetings arranged by a trusted
figure in the American anti-spam community, Anne Mitchell, have been
slowly bringing the two sides together. These mini-conferences, held
under the banner of the Institute for Spam and Internet Public Policy,
have mostly been between the highest-ranking ISPs - MSN, AOL - and
commercial email marketers of the most squeaky clean kind. Initially
in secret, these days the meetings are more public.

Spam vs. Anti-Spam: the war escalates!
06/22/2004 02:47 AMEvery time someone introduces a new anti-spam technique, some wily
spammer devises a workaround. This myriad of actions and reactions is
going to tie our e-mail system in knots. The only real solution to
unsolicited mail is to eliminate the problem altogether by stopping
spam at the source. To this end, the folks at ImagineNation have
proposed an eMstamp solution and have set out to publicly answer the
many questions that the proposal has raised. [PRWEB Jun 22, 2004]

Anti-Spammers Don't Need CAN-SPAM
Anti-Spammers Don't Need CAN-SPAM
09/25/2004 12:00 AMWhile the CAN-SPAM act was meant to stop spam, it obviously hasn't
yet. Although it's pretty easy to point out some of CAN-SPAM's flaws,
it's perhaps better that some anti-spam activists are actually
taking
spammers to court -- though mostly citing pre-existing laws
regarding false advertising or deception. Armed with these older and
easier-to-understand laws, the Informal Coalition of Private Anti-spam
Litigants (ICPAL) and the Institute for Spam and Internet Public
Policy (ISIPP) have helped some businesses and devout anti-spammers
take some sleazy mass emailers to court and win a few sizable monetary
judgments. Still, the strategy for these anti-spammers is to remain
informal but organized, so that spammers can't retaliate. However,
these anti-spammers also say they're not in it for the money, and some
have refused to settle out of court on principle. Given that some of
the spammers are hard to actually find, much less extract damages
from, it looks like these vigilante organizations may remain small and
informal until perhaps some
bounties are
put out on spammers heads.
