Other Cyber-Attacks: The Spamdemic Map
by Joe Katzman at June 28, 2002 2:55 PM
Want to know where all your spam is coming from? It's a surprisingly interconnected group, as the Spamdemic Map points out.
And if you want to do something about spam, try this Winds of Change post. If you're a non-Outlook user like me, note the links to "Blackhole lists" et. al. and either program your own filter (UNIX guru approach), or bug your ISP to use one (all others).
Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
Finally, note that a constant onslaught of Trackback spams from auto-generated blogspot blogs has forced Winds to ban the blogspot.com domain from use in comments or trackbacks. If you host on blogspot, consider moving; otherwise, the complaints need to be directed at Google not us.
