So... A poll/discussion thread to determine who likes spam and who hates it.
NO KICKING!

Ugh... I hate spammers. Once, I received about 300 emails, and I spent the whole day deleting them.

Spam is an epidemic, and spammers are its carriers, just like flies, rats, and cockroaches. What do we do with such carriers?! :) ...
But seriously, they should impose real prison sentences (3-8 years) for spamming.

I don't mind. For me, TV commercials are also spam.

I really dislike it; although I consider advertising even more harmful, spam irritates me more.
Advertising is still an impersonal appeal, addressing you as a member of a social group, while spam seems to come to you personally, to your own email address... It's unpleasant, to put it mildly.
I wouldn't kill spammers, but they need to be re-educated :) Let them engage in socially useful activities :)

tolerable... but sometimes it's just infuriating... especially the spam on Mail Agent and Email itself.

I treat them with irony. Especially, I find those link-based messages amusing, like: "Forward this to at least 50 of your contacts and you will be HAPPY!". It even lifts my spirits))

There's a button at the top; you click it, and all the messages on the page are highlighted, and then they can be deleted. A few clicks are usually enough, even for 300 spam messages.

P.S. At least, that's how it works with email.

I completely agree, it's so annoying, but it's also one reason why the Mail service is free. They publish email databases for money, thereby covering the costs of all the mailboxes on their service...

And in general, when you receive a couple of emails asking, "Do you have problems with erection?" you start thinking about changing your email address...

So, for example, I created 4 mailboxes on different servers, just to be sure... but spammers still find my email address even though I don't leave it anywhere...

When I first got an email address, I received emails for a long time offering to increase something by five centimeters. After a couple of weeks, I decided to enter my date of birth (this was about three years ago)... The emails stopped immediately)))

Although there is still a lot of spam.

Problems at work? Did your girlfriend leave you? Are you short on money? Don't worry! You're just a LOSER!

Maybe our spammers are honest, but that still won't stop them; their goal is to get as many people as possible to see their ads...

P.S.: I hope this isn't directed at me, or else... :smile10:

I suspect Wiz was quoting spam:)
Hacker, register on Gmail:) I don't get spam there. Or on the Ukrainian "Meta". What's the difference, spam won't get through either way:)
And I've already started quietly responding to those "letters of happiness" with viruses. Luckily, a friend of mine has a whole flash drive full of them:)

Hmm. The issue isn't entirely about where I'm registered. I have a filter installed, and I don't receive the spam myself, only a report about how many spam messages I have.
But the problem still isn't solved!

In general, spammers are also a good thing; they bring one criterion of perfect competition into our world: awareness.
