Kirb’s Musings

Kirby Witmer’s ponderings, ruminations, and meditations of… anything.

E-mail spam, blog spam, forum spam…. aaaarrrrgggghhhhhhh.. would you spammers just bug off? No. I am not clicking on your links, so why waste your time spamming? I’ve been suspicious for a while now that spam is on the rise, and I just discovered this blog spam stats page by Akismet that confirms it. 93% of all comments are spam!! yikes.

Spam today: 2,729,513
Ham* today: 124,140
93% of all comments are spam

*Ham is what Akismet calls a non-spam message.
