Spam Comment Manifesto

The spammers may have picked a fight with the wrong kids in the schoolyard.

Harvesting email-addresses off of web pages was bad enough IMNSHO, to me it is a clear violation of my private space to steal my published email address and send unsolicited commercial messages to it.

Posting comments on weblogs and discussion groups peddling crappy products is even more so. Maybe the spammers finally crossed the wrong line.

Spammers are hereby put on notice. Your comments are not welcome. If the purpose behind your comment is to advertise yourself, your Web site, or a product that you are affiliated with, that comment is spam and will not be tolerated. Bloggers will track you down and notify your hosting providers about your activities. We will tell your Ineternet Service Providers what you are using their connections for. We will let the makers of the products you are advertising know of your despicable sales methods. We will hit you where it hurts by attacking your source of income. You can move to a new host, find a new Internet Service Provider, or sign up for a different affiliate plan. The end result will be the same. Each time you rise out of the muck we will strike you down and send you back to the hole you crawled out of.

Bold words. I certainly like it. In a tech controlled world, the tech savviest clique will win.

Just picked this up in SmartMobs. I think this article is spreading like fire across the blogosphere right now.
