    Hello everybody,

    Today I had read about the man described as a top spammer arrested at yahoo news.

    A 27-year-old man described as one of the world’s most prolific spammers was arrested Wednesday, and federal authorities said computer users across the Web could notice a decrease in the amount of junk e-mail.

    That’s why our email full with junk email. That’s really suck for me to read the clients email and more bad when I want delete the junk email but I had delete the clients email! I hope the top spammer will get punishment.

    Maybe there are those who say "its just email, delete it". No harm.
    But some are taken in by these tactics and its a shame. Lives are damaged
    by these preditor types. Certainly white collar crime, but crime just the same.
    If he spends justs 10 years in jail, it will be great. I would like to see some of those guys that sell "spy ware" software answer for their sales tactics.

    Never heard of "spam king" untill this article. But I'm sure I have received spam from him.

    The government is corrupt, and their crimes go far beyond "spamming" people. Next thing you know they will be talking about an "email tax," and a lot of you here at Digital will be played by fools, too blind to see that it is a take over of the net.

    I would rather be spammed than have the government take over the net, and I feel sorry for the guy. He beat the system, and now the government is trying to come after him. But you know what, one man out of millions doesn't mean jack.

    The government wants to celebrate. They only won the battle, not the war. People are going to keep spamming as long as their is an Internet, and the government should just accept it and do something more productive, like keeping the value of our dollar from falling, or enforcing our borders......

    Screw this news............I hope the spammers win.................and I hate spam....but I hate the government controlling the net even more...............

    Every time you outsmart the government, and start making money under the table, they want to come arrest you. Meanwhile, they leave our borders wide open, and Illegals come over here at get jobs.............and they don't pay a penny in taxes.

    You guys who think this is good news won't be happy when you get hit with a domain tax, email tax, and a complete government take over of the net. You will feel like a real idiot.

    It is really heartening to note that prolific spammers can be kept at bay by taking legal actions againt them. But I don't know how far the developing countries are geared to fight the menace where rules have to be framed afresh. It is a point to ponder :)
