Good points. Trust me, I know how to follow the spam :) Most that come from Korea are actually sent from the U.S. (creating twice the traffic.)
I completely agree with you on law enforcement! I've called them all! FBI, CIA, Local PD, ect... and the only thing they will ever attempt to go after is if someone falls for a scam. No proactive actions taken. I'm ready to become the "John Walsh" of anti-spam. I preach the word of SA to everyone, but like you guys said, the rate of people using it is only slowly climbing. The attack on RBLs is proactive by spammers. These newer viruses are also proactive. SA is reactive. (But sooo nice!) Junk snail-mail does not cost me money or resources. Spam does. TV commercials have to abide by certain rules, spam doesn't. I actually think the ISPs are the next step. Certain ones will listen, others we may have to go to the ISP's provider ;) I actually have an idea for this!!! DSR! (Distributed Spam Reporting!) Each month (or whatever time period) we agree on the biggest ISP spam source. Post it to a web site for all to see. Then we all simply report every piece of SPAM that comes from that ISP to that ISP during that period! Use whatever method to report. Phones, email, snail-mail, faxes. But _ALL_ of use reporting to one per time period should get their attention! Maybe it's not an ISP, but a hop for dealing with Korean, China, ect.... We could clean them up one by one. What do you guys think? Anyone seen a report that rates where the most spam comes from? --Chris Santerre ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN developer relations Here's your chance to show off your extensive product knowledge We want to know what you know.
