The Internet has become the worlds dirty little whore. Everyone uses her, we care less about her health and more about her speed with the goodies...No one's willing to an honest wage for her services any more, and we need prophylactics to prevent the spread of viruses from her womb. ...And you can quote me on that. - StyleWar "Mountains cannot be surmounted except by winding paths"

Some of these registrars are in it simply for the money and care nothing about the "health" of the Internet. Shame, shame. Via eMail Battles. [snip] These days, it seems everybody complains about spammers, but few have noticed how key players allow spammers to ply their trade. Email Battles takes you on safari, tracking a big one, then shows you how a well-known and respected registrar makes the tracks vanish. Think about that next time you hear ICANN-types whine about the impossibility of stopping spam. You're either part of the solution, or part of the problem.
