A swedish ISP got a very interesting way to fight spam.

A Swedish ISP got a very interesting way to fight spam.

Users download a screensaver that request pages from spamservers all over the world.

They try to slow down the spammers servers as much as possible and use as much bandwidth as possible.

I dont think it will work but its a cool idea.

But, is this legal?

It will be interesting to see the response from all the spammers if many people start to use this.

Just ask thehun nicely and he might help out.

(Too bad if the spammers have hijacked a server that they're not paying for. Someone will get a rude shock when they see their overage bill.)

So, in your world, two wrongs equal a right then?

What exactly are you talking about meaning legal?
