Spam is a terrible problem and I don't need to wax poetic about why. If I could make one comment about spam however... It is a terrible drain on wireless devices. Among all the other productivity zapping things it does to users, the wireless device battery drain is especially annoying.I am especially frustrated as I have to carry extra batteries for my wireless handheld e-mail device because of all the spam I receive. Well I do also receive a massive amount of legitimate e-mail, but the spam is the icing on the cake.
This is why I read with some satisfaction how a stock spam ring has been broken and the leader will be doing time. If seeing spammers arrested makes you happy, be sure to read this Reuters article.
