However knowing first hand what it costs companies to combat spam in the way of anti spam software, usage of bandwidth, space and what not it always turns into theft of services rather than spam and therefore thats where the jail times come in.

Also these spammers gets ip blocks completely blocked by these off the wall spamhauses then the hosting companies are forced to setup new ventures to get "clean ips". Spam costs all us in this industry money like it or not.

Think bandwidth is free? or space on a server? then why is your host charging you every month.
