    Agreed. years ago I wrote a BP document for a former employer

    porn & malware links in there instantaneously.


There are no customizable fields and no links allowed. the problem comes when it's coupled with spammy content created via magisto itself. I think it will be hard to make a convincing 419 scam flick with the service (of course, spammers will always show ingenuity, never say never), but I've already seen (herbal) viagra ads and of course pornography. A challenge though, i'll see if I can find anything.

The content itself is the customizable field! What is the advantage of sending the invite or whatever yourself, rather than providing the user with the ability to do it themselves?

iOS share panel, send to the default email client, etc. Don't distribute the abuse yourself, make the abuser handle the distribution channel.
