- Back in February, we posted a link to a profile of known spammer Ronnie Scelson. At the time, it sounded as though he was getting quite annoyed by all those anti-spammers out there who were "forcing" him to use underhanded tricks to spam people. He preferred, he claimed, to be totally upfront about who he was and what he was sending but then (surprise, surprise) people would get angry at him and shut him down. Perhaps he should think about that. If people are trying to shut him down, maybe it's because they don't want the crap he's dumping on them. |
