short version: the SEC suspended trading of over 60 securities that are being hyped by spam. it’s about darned time, too, if you ask me—i get way too much of that spam as it is! long version here.

commentary: i’m glad spammers are stupid. when you spam the SEC, expect consequences, you idiots!

    I wonder if this will actually do anything to cut down on the spamming in the long run though. I would hope it would. Spammers are becoming more sophisticated.


    My university mail server seems to be upgrading it's spam filters every 3-4 weeks lately just to try to combat it. There was a period last fall semester though that our faculty email server was so overridden with spam that I had 1300+ messages in my inbox in one day.

    well, it'll stop that type of spam anyway. i suppose that's gotta be good for something.
