Never going to end, and I dont use them


what makes you so sure Fletch?

- spam can end just by changing the whole email protocol on the internet.

- spyware, if everyone acted on it like the-hun did, we would put a hurt on them

- p2p networks wouldnt be fed with this much content if everyone starts using DRM, or the DRM technology advances and becomes more popular

- mousetraps, popup blockers that actually work or the next version of IE that blocks popups will solve the problem



I am not saying I can give you the right solutions to each problem, but we sure can do a lot better by working our minds collectively and identifying things that take money from our pockets.

The main problem is the pessimistic thinking that you have just presented. Acceptance of defeat by those who perform unethical business.
