Re: another idea to spam spammers

So whoever get most votes gets DOS'd?
Or does one person decide?
What if you don't agree with that person?
Do you really want to travel down the road of coordinated attacks against those who a certain group, in their own opinion, decides are detrimental to the net? I've seen the violently anti-spam community work. I do not want that group of self righteous, power hungry, egomaniacs deciding what is "good" and what is "bad" because once they eliminate the "bad" they will move the line so they can continue their quest to feel important.

And the spammers will work around it everyone else will suffer under it.

How about a simple tool that does something like allow many individual users to generate a single (anonymized) hit to the URLs in spam that they personally receive? Multiply that by all the people who get spam, and the merchants ultimately sponsoring the spam would have to bear a burden of traffic more in proportion to what they subject others.
