Life without Spam.

Can you believe if I say that I didn't receive a single spam in my Inbox today? Never, explicitly answering. Let it be emails, mails or even our grocery bills, spamming has become an integral part of our lives. I got the inspiration to write about this from the spam comments I got in my blog. I forgot to give proper attention to my blog for 4 months, but found that someone else has. It's amazing that people have jobs just to think of ways to spam. When it comes to think of it, this is not a bad job. It must be quite challenging and extremely satisfying, sadistically or otherwise. Good or bad, is difficult to label it. But whatever it is, it has crept into our lives as the commercials in the TV. These days we have competition like the best, the most comic TV ads. Which makes we wonder, if there is some kind of award ceremony for the spammers or they just work for the money. Saying that, I don't take anything away from them. I admit that I might have punched the moving monkey or picked the legs of the super model. So they are not stupid as we might think and also they must be profiting from the endeavor. But I have a suggestion, to target the proper audience. I know it is very easy to send email/mail to everyone they can get hold of, instead they can direct their efforts to the people they think they have more possibility to profit from. I anit gonna need Viagra (hopefully) for the next 40 years of my life.

A few days back I read an article where a company claims to protect you from spammers by using your details, making fake emails and spamming the spammers. But I guess there will be a lot of ethical issues regarding this strategy.
