I love it. Spam advertising products to cut down on spam. The guy even says
my address was harvested by a robot and says where it came from (sadly, from a
post I made to an open development list before I learned to obscure my email
address). On the one hand, it'd be great if all spammers told you exactly
where they got your address, but then, it'd also be great if a guy advertising
anti-spam services didn't advertise them by spam. The hypocricy of it is
amazing to me. The worst thing that this Mr. Mark Scott probably doesn't even
realize that his product would probably be appealing to some non-technical
people if it wasn't spammed out everywhere. He's basically ruining his
business by promoting it stupidly. To all the spammers out there, believe it
or not, while good advertisements might convince a few people to buy something
they might not have bought otherwise, obnoxious advertisements, especially
spam, will cause people who might have made a purchase to decline doing so on
principle and to prevent spam. [Jonathon Merz]
