Spamcop.net = Terrorist orginisation

from an email i just got:

Hello Free Internet User.

You are reciving this email because we are having some trouble
with an infamous company (http://spamcop.net) who seem to be
hell bent on destroying not only my business but many other legitimate
website owners and email list operators.

we generaly get 1 or 2 complaints while mailing subscribers
the rest are made up by a fraudulent spamcop.

we always provide working optout links should you ever wish
to unsubscribe from our mailing list. its instant and contrary
to spamcops propoganda that we will sell your email.

SPAMCOP IS A BUSINESS, THEY BLOCK THE ONLY WAY
OF OPTING OUT, SO THEY CAN GET $30 UPSELLS ON
THEIR WEBSITE!!!, IF EVERYONE OPTED OUT THEY
WOULD HAVE NO BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!

the companys main problems are:

The CEO, one julian haight of (12560 37th Ave. NE Seattle, WA 98125 US)
i belive has a serious attitude problem and is serverly lacking
the intelligence to distinguish between an optin mailing
with working optout links, and whats commenly know as spam.
(or he just doesnt care)

the company and some die hard users(losers) have a "nazi"
like attitude to any sort of email.

everyone knows that spam can be a big problem, but often
these companys blow it out of proportion for quick profit.
they cause financial disruption to companys who have
invested years of hard work.
they send thousands of unsolicited complaints to hosts/isps.

there needs to be a balance or a monitoring authority put
in place to monitor the activities of these sorts of companys.
otherwise the internet will no longer be the free place it
once was.

if you are fedup with these companies taking away our freedom
of speech and our rights to create a legitamite business
and want to keep your internet a free place, email your isp
and lobby them
to use an alternate spam filtering system, one that actuly
checks a message to see if it is spam, and checks for
unsubscribe links!

Julian haight spamcops CEO is rumoured to have conections with
Al-Quada, one of the most disruptive terrorist orginisations on earth.
hes specialty is cyber terrorism. which disperses highly needed
homeland security funds by rendering multi million dollar
industrys unprofitable.
haights main motive is the perversion of American free enterprise.

SPAMCOP EVEN BLACKLISTS ITS COMPETITORS!!!

I've yet to find any self proclaimed and self regulated 'police' of any kind that aren't far more trouble than they're worth. Shame really as often the service is needed.

I agree somewhat but if the SPAMCOP dudes blacklist without research then there's a problem. For example, last month I got shit loads of bounced e-mails sent by some spam company who decided to use one of my domains as a plaything!

Kind of a pain having to wade through an delete additional 250-300 bounced emails per day not to mention the potential of getting targeted by spamcop or the like for something I didn't even send.

On a side note, do the spammers who mangle their subject lines and text to slip past my spam filter really believe I'm gonna click it this time?
