I would add this as well: Any single spammer, provided they are not the type that cluster spams, isn't what I would consider as a huge problem individually.

I think of them as the punk on the corner downtown with a squeege trying to guilt people into giving them money. A single one is an amusing annoyance.

Now, picture that there is 100 squeege people on each corner. Every time you stop your car for 1 second,20 of them jump on the hood all trying to clean your windshield and steal your cash.

Finally, you stop driving because your car is now useless.

Spam is like that to me: So many spammers send out so much spam over and over again, repeating the same few subjects, watches, software to stop spam, pills, penis patches, and pump and dump stock scams seem pretty much to be it. Thousands of pieces per day of total, overwhelming shit.

It is enough to make me want to turn off email and not use it again.

I won't let these fuckers ruin the internet for everyone. JenC can go to jail and learn something from it.
