It sounds like good business. But it is not. That one bad person creates usually hundrets to million times the damage compared to his gain. If possible society would fare much better by retiring all those spammers on a decent allowance. Right now they kill millions of business to make a bug or two.
What ever happened to the the ‘canspam’ act that the Administration put in place? Spam is not Bush’ fault. But having a government that is vastly clueless about any thing invented after 1983 did not make the spammers life exactly tough.
