To spammers, newsgroups are a write-only medium. You're wasting your time writing a response that will never be read by its intended target.

Google doesn't give a rat's rear end. You're wasting your time writing to them, too. They won't do anything.

Yahoo might -- but the most they'll do is close that account. It won't stop him from opening a new one five minutes later.

Bottom line: you can't stop the spammers from spamming. What you *can* do is join the Usenet Improvement Project (www.improve-usenet.org) and killfile all traffic coming from Google Groups. Received on Thu Mar 20 2008 - 09:35:49 CDT
