Agreed, I have also made this observation some time ago. But then it occurred to me that there is money being made through email spam through taxes levied on hosts, ISP's, etc. So they are still making their share of the pie. So I'm not sure how strong an argument this is, but I am sure that to the government it all has to do with dollars and cents.
