This is steep: BangBros.com Inc. of Miami agreed to pay $650,000

Most of this is from programs accepting spam signups I believe. They say no email in their TOS but when someone starts sending 10+ signups a day they turn the other way. Now they have to pay.

I wonder how much they made from Spammers?

As MML once told to me - everything is here! As an example:

Now the only thing I can say about this is that I'm very happy for all people sending these companies traffic. You're actually the ones that helped them collect enough money to pay their penalties :) So, don't say you hate spam :) You're paing for it!

To be honest, I know BangBus long before I entered the X biz and based on their stock rates I guess that paying the one time fee of $650k is OK compared to what they made from spam :) I call this a good long term investment...

I know a person that built a hotel and he wanted to cut off 2 of the threes infront of it, but they were owned by the municipality. What he did was to cut them down anyway. After this he paid the penalty, which was less than the costs for cutting off the threes.

Want to contribute to this community? It's easy - it's easy - drop these sponsors' links... but again - nobody's going to do that - after all they're legit and they pay - they pay taxes AND penalties, so what can you do - nothing... at least that what 99% of you people think :)

Spammers exist, simply because people allow them to and not because of a few greedy adult companies...

Not much - a few gazillions tops ;)
