This is what the net needs to clean things up. So much time, money, energy wasted on spam/hackers/viruses. It basically comes down to these people feel OK abusing others.

I would like to see an equally aggressive effort directed at the telemarketing industry. It's hard to believe we haven't criminalized that activity.

Interesting. I visited his blog. It says he is fighting spam now. I doubt he is sincere.
