OT: recent explosion of SPAM.
I'm just curious if everyone else (who doesn't have their own filters set
up) is seeing all these --- and beastiality posts? I've been seeing them in
most of the groups I frequent. I remember seeing a few before we moved, but
nothing like the MASSIVE influx I've seen in the last two days. If I'm the
only one who has seen it, I'm fully prepared to blame Qwest (which is known
to blow donkeys themselves) and ignore it.
My theories:
1. Qwest really really really stinks and lets these messages through,
unchallenged.
2. Someone has just discovered how to do this, and they're spamming like
crazy cause of the perverse high they get from it. This too, will pass.
Which is likely more correct?
