Ah, home sweet home

Blog from Italy’s new home has been discovered. Only the intrepid explorers are not sausage hunters or those interested in reading about things Italian. Nope, they are my old friends the spammers. The spammer who labels comments with odd names of Greek origin is back to challenge the spam system, and a certain Daniel has joined the spam team, and he seems to have an interesting bot that can collect parts of my posts, and, almost, fool me into thinking the comments are legitimate. Then there is the spammer who was looking for places in New York that sell car tyres, or should that be ‘tires’. Heaven knows what that particular individual was trying to achieve sending spam to a site in and about Italy. And yet another spammer seems to be coming from a site about the American elections.

I suppose spam bots are not that intelligent, with the possible exception of Daniel’s who seem to be able to ‘read’. Well, that’s spammers for you - not particularly worthwhile people who make money out of annoying others. Oh well, such is life.

    Even though I’m an atheist, I’m convinced there should be a special level of hell reserved for spammers and telemarketers.

    Hi Jessica,

    I’m with you on this one - spammers hell should be a place where these delightful people are forced to read endless mails about organ enlargement and viagra, whereas telemarketer hell would be a place where these wonderful people receive endless calls trying to sell them double glazing, and anything else that these people peddle. At least then they may understand how they managed to create a form of hell on earth for their victims.

    Bit of a shame that Satan could not tell these people in advance about the fate that awaits them….

    All the best,

    Alex
