Fuck Spammers

While this is a good start, I would really prefer a street Justice good old fashion beatdown for this worthless piece of shit. I've been in the tech industry since the early 90's. Yep kids, with a mac plus and a 2400 baud modem. And I've dealt with so much spam most of my accounts were unusable until I switched to Gmail. Now I can even use my Frognet account, because Google understands how to implement a spam filter. I never even see most of it anymore...but I'd still love to have about ten minutes alone in a confined space with this human paraquat.

Ode to the Spam King
If you were to take a rotten egg
crack it into a bowl of diarrhea
mix thoroughly with a putrefying fish carcass
distill the liquid off, and dry the solids
reconstitute this with asparagus tinged urine of a musk ox in heat,
you'd have a sniff of how bad this man's soul smells.

I hope he dies in a car fire.

Computer user
Mr Soloway allegedly sent millions of e-mails on hijacked computers
.. E IIMA --> .. S SF --> A man nicknamed the "spam king" for allegedly sending out millions of junk e-mails has been arrested in the US.

Robert Soloway, 27, was arrested in Seattle, Washington, after being indicted on charges of mail fraud, identity theft and money laundering.

Mr Soloway has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

Prosecutors say Mr Soloway became one of the world's biggest spammers, using computers secretly infected with orders to send out millions of his e-mails. .. E SF -->

Such computers are known as "zombies" because their owners often have no idea they have been hijacked for another purpose.

Identity theft laws

According to prosecutors, Mr Soloway was responsible for tens of millions of unsolicited e-mails promoting his own company between November 2003 and May 2007.

He is said to have frequently changed the web address of his internet marketing business to avoid being caught.

A US lawyer said Mr Soloway was the first person to be prosecuted for sending out spam e-mails using federal laws against identity theft.

Prosecutors want to seize the sum of $773,000 (£391,000) that Mr Soloway is said to have made from his firm.

If convicted of all the charges, he also faces a fine of $250,000 (£126,500) and a maximum prison term of 65 years.
