I just thought of a plan to rid the net of a lot of its spam!

The dopey lawmakers won't do anything. And the ISPs, though they are gradually waking up to it, are too slow to really understand that spam screws them too. And many spammers now have their own servers anyway.

So here is my war-plan:
Whenever spam mail is sent that has a website address in it then perhaps that site should be marked for a Distributed Denial Of Service attack. If anybody out there has a herd of zombies it might be worth making yourself a hero.

Perhaps after a while companies would realise that buying spam services makes their site a target for DDOS attacks. In a short time the flood of spam should subside to a trickle.

Wouldn't that be nice.

This couldn't be for real... could it?
Please tell me that this was the result of touching up the pic in an image editor.

LOL! Actually it is real...but you may notice a slight space between the SP and AM. It's short for Spanish American war. :o] They couldn't have known how it would look years in the future.
