  • Russia's Biggest Spammer Brutally Murdered in Apartment

    Um, ok.  I hate spammers as much (if not more) than the next guy, but not enough to murder any one. 

    Vardan Kushnir, notorious for sending spam to each and every citizen of Russia who appeared to have an e-mail, was found dead in his Moscow apartment on Sunday, Interfax reported Monday. He died after suffering repeated blows to the head.
    Nobody in the entire population is being ruled out as a suspect. 😉

    Found this story via digg.  And it occured to me that I had a category called “Kill Spammers.”  I was just being sarcastic.  Killing someone for sending you too many emails is just a BIT extreeme.  I think people get a little too into their little worlds and forget that there are other things our side of email.. things like LIFE.

    Perhaps I should rename this category “Don't Kill Spammers.”
