Missed the point

My point was that, in addition to the spam we always had, we will now have legitimate spam, potentially averaging almost a thousand messages per day.

This spam will be entirely legal, and will make email completely useless as a medium of communication. Just receiving it all, even before the filters go to work, will be a de-facto DDoS attack.

If you're going to argue, PERHAPS YOU SHOULD READ THE MESSAGE IN ITS ENTIRETY.

It's really annoying when you SHOUT back at people and REVEAL that you have a BAD temper about STUPID THINGS.

I did read your message in its entirety (twice now) and I'm still missing your "point" - either because I'm an idiot (quite possible) or because you didn't make it very well (let me guess, you think you made it just fine...).

Your second message was a lot better. You should have just left out all the stuff about "the government being firmly in the coporate pocket" and just written your second post in the first place.
