Interesting Opportunity
China has lost most Internet connectivity due to the underwater cables that broke this week. We should see a dramatic drop in SPAM for the next week or so while those cables are repaired. I hope someone is tracking this.

Excellent point. I say keep track of the IPs that come on line FIRST and permanently BAN them since they’ll very likely BE the worst spammers.

I’ve lost about 300 of my 1300 daily readers. But some unknown proportion of this is doubtless due to regular readers being on Xmas vacations. I usually lose 150-250 daily readers when the colleges are on vacation anyway
FWIW, my incoming spams have reduced about 25% too. Most still come from the USA, btw
