OT: Spammers against Spam
I got an unsolicited e-mail - I guess that's defined as "spam", isn't it? - accusing Microsoft of spamming, and calling for a worldwide boycot of MS.

Re: OT: Spammers against Spam
I wonder if there really is a SPAMIS Foundation, and, if so, if its members are serious about it or were just having a party.

How about the pop-up advertisements for people who make pop-up killers?

Re: OT: Spammers against Spam
[Second degree] You didn't get it Woundwort: when MS sends mails, they are breaking state, federal, international and galactic laws. On the other hand, informative mails about the Resistance are perfectly lawful, for they solve to make matters right. If someone has committed a crime, the police can break speed regulations to catch them; likewise, if you need to stop illegal spam, then you can spam on your own. [/Second degree] The worst part is that it might actually be their argument.
I say, open it. Don't you love being Pandora?

Re: OT: Spammers against Spam
I forgot to buy milk yesterday, let's boycott Microsoft.
I forgot to put my slippers right at my bedside last night, let's boycott Microsoft.
