I'm flabbergasted. An article about spam in the online version of a major newspaper, and the article is competent! Things like SpamAssassin and Bayesian Mail Filtering are even explained correctly. It also addresses current case law and sheds light on some of the problems explaining why it's so difficult to take legal action against spammers in the USA. Remarkable.
It would be nice if Der Spiegel took an example from this and finally moved beyond its computer club level.
I found the original article at New York Times: Technology.
