Agreed, but at least that equipment serves a purpose beyond spam. Besides, think of the amount of gas and man hours wasted producing and delivering real spam. Tangible waste is all I'm really concerned with here. These are both products that no one wants, yet one is virtual and does not end up in the dump. No point in arguing how bad email spam is here, everyone hates it and no one wants it in their spam folder. So again, what is worse?
