I say we kill them and burn their gallery to the ground...

Really, the cost in manpower alone to deal with this shit is in the billions. As far as I'm concerned, they can execute virus writers.

Get these fuckers so scared they won't ever touch a computer again.

Is this going to generate another one of those art vs. what I like discussions?

Where's the Israeli Ambassador when you need him?

... and I don't so much mind my 15 year old son getting 'C D Cox in da Ho's' type subject lines, but I do object to seeing actual cocksucking in the actual email, because I have an impressionable 15 YO child to think about. I don't care to see it myself unless specifically requested.

If you didn't catch it, my major beef is with the virus-writers. That is what I call terrorism.

And fuck them.

I did get your drift, NBN, but I was wondering about the value of spam as an art installation.

(IMHO, about the same as spam found in the wild)

Hey, don't flush that. It's an "art" installation.
