How often do we get daily advertising? On Internet sites, in television broadcasting or in magazines, everywhere are colorful advertisements advertise for the most impossible things.
Against these forms you can certainly argue anything, because they can handle even sometimes more sometimes less easy.
But what about advertising that arrives directly at you, on your home PC? There are promises of great profits, great women and a cure-all products and given the best, once you have replied to such a dubious message, then the number of messages grows almost fever pitch.
Yes, the talk is of spam that arrives not only by mail or unwanted phone calls, no, now blogs, guest books, forums and many other forms of communication in the network converted to virtual billboards.
Here in the blog the statistics still looks fairly soberly, 13 spam comments were blocked successfully.
What are we to make against advertising on the messenger, including ICQ, MSN or Yahoo, to name a few. Are anti-spam tools is not yet available! Address block does not help! The only help that it is never to publish his address on the network, who is even in the case has no chance, then you can such messages as:
Hey there... I'm doing a LIVE STRIPTEASE on my webcam for all my friends! Let me know if you would like to watch me and I'll send you the link.
just ignore yet. Of course several times a day, it is even a guarantee!
This is supposed to be only the beginning of the story, as it was to read in a very interresting article for the Berliner Zeitung, are in spam mails now even used pieces of Shakespeare and other great poets to the bypass on words based filtering of spam emails.
Hope we will make the anti-spam tools too, such advances, as do the spammers now, because otherwise the only solution is a life completely separate from the Internet.
Let's wait, as in a year or two looks, if we then have to rely on completely different way of communicating back, as spam and viruses can destroy networks, a great example of this is the KaZaA P2P network, which today almost disappeared completely in Nirvana seems to be.
The belief in a spam-free future, BODY Snatch.
