Spam is Getting Out of Control

Lately there has been too much spam on our blogs that I can’t even keep up with deleting them all. Today when I logged on to this site I saw that there were something like thirty spam comments on the manage side of the comments. I have that plugin that WordPress put out that is supposed to catch the spam and send it away but I don’t think it is working for the new version of spammers.

I’m not a big fan of the spam generation. I swear that if they haven’t found a new way to advertise to the masses by now, then they are wasting their time. With all the spam blockers and email guards, filters and what nots there messages don’t even get seen.

Another great place that I can’t even visit anymore because of spammers is CraigsList.org. Try to post something on CraigsList.org in your local area and see how many spam messages you receive in your inbox, or junk mailbox. The spam is really getting out of control. Isn’t there an ACT or a Law somewhere that prohibits the spamming in some state in the United States? Maybe we should think about getting that across the world. I mean really …. who reads that garbage anyway? I know that there is not one person I know personally that will bother wit wasting their time checking through the Junk Mailbox let alone taking the time to actually read the messages.

Ever since I got on the internet … yeah a long ass time ago … I have been plagued with spam in my inbox. Even in our postal mailbox. It’s advertising yes, but if you don’t put your email address in a form saying that you want to receive that information then you shouldn’t be receiving that information. I mean … I’m still young and I would hope that I don’t need to know the best price on viagra yet. Or how to make her happy tonight. It’s just out of control. I wish there was something I personally could do to put a stop to the spammers. I guess one voice is not enough no matter how loud that voice is, the words still fall on deaf ears.

Maybe instead of creating a billion dollar spam blocker software industry you could take a few minutes to decide on how to actually STOP SPAM from happening in the first place.
