Once upon a time, before we had Gmail we used to curse spammers and sometimes even swear to kill them. I know that I banned whole IP blocks from Russia because this blog can't handle the 200,000+ hits they make every few days, Wordpress' comment moderation just stands still. Well, all those threats to kill? Someone actually acted on them.
A Russian Penis Enlargement Spammer shot dead by hitmen. Two years ago, another big spammer was killed brutally, with more effort taken in hurting him than in killing him. There's that little twinge I feel, it's there every time I hear about a killing, but I must say that I have few qualms that these people have been killed. I wouldn't do it myself, but I will thank the one who did, so long as he isn't trying to "move in on" the dead man's business.
It really is very hard to feel sorry for these men. Ah, such is life.

What would be the motive for these killings? The penis enlargement drug didn't work?
Ha ha, the second dude, he once spammed the Minister for Communication and when that Minister tried retaliating by making 1000 synchronised calls to that fellow's numbers, he spammed the Minister again saying, "You'll need a ton of these pills" followed by some advertisement for Viagra. Now imagine him doing that to some KGB dude...
You have little qualms about the spammer's death? That's so unkind.
Yes it is. Sad, no?
