US Spammer complains new laws will make his work more difficult, conspicuous lack of mourning from world. [via Slashdot.]
I saw a report in the Independent while I was 'on holiday' saying that with the outbreak of new generation TV recorders that can screen out the ad breaks, advertisers were now considering giving up on TV advertising. Similarly, Microsoft were supposed to be thinking of charging everyone for the honour of sending an email in the hopes of driving spammers to the poor house. It'll never happen, but isn't it nice to consider the prospect of a world without advertising?
