I recall the Usenet spam from those two immigration attorneys in the early '90s. They were who began to make spam an industry.

I was on Usenet when that was sent, it was all about trying to help people get a green card. Up until today I thought that was the first spam.

If we go to a cost per email model, spam will end. I’m willing to pay.
