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?

Nope.

How would you fell if someone stole your bandwidth?

Would you press charges?

lycos?

Allah Ouakbarrrrrrr
Let's do that to W website so JFK gets elected and loves all the Muslims
Allah Ouakbarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

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

JFK? WTF !?

I think it's a pretty nice illegal idea! :D

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.)

JFK = John F. Kerry
Allaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah Ouakbarrrrrrrrrrr

Finally a suggestion to combat the crookedness of the Republican party!

Who cares if it's legal, is sending spam legal, how do i get one of them screen savers lol!

Haha I would care if I owned that company.
Its not everyday a ISP try to bring down spammers this way. :)

hehe, who owns http://fingermygirlfriend.com/ ?

Looks like Spray does not like you.

Ok Serge, too much coffee for you today..

Depends if everything was legal or not. :glugglug

It's a good idea in a wild west kind of world but we have laws and this will not go over well...

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

What exactly are you talking about meaning legal?

If I did send legal spam or not.

Nice screensaver.

Sounds similar to a DDoS attack
