Yeah, that's exactly what they're doing!  It's a plot to TAKE OVER 
THE WORLD.  You figured it out!

It's about giving the spammers what they want:  More traffic to their 
websites.  How can it be wrong when they send out 1 million emails 
that all say "click on this link" and 1 million computers actually 
click the link?  Who's in the wrong there?

Besides: "rule the Internet by emminent domain."  Isn't' that Verisign's job?
