mayank 2 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 well i think murder is really bad....even if he was a spammer...everyone gets spam we all hate spam but spam is not the reason for killing anyone.(considering someone killed him because of spam only ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mama_soap 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 (considering someone killed him because of spam only ) 166258[/snapback] Well, this is from a page that was linked from the given page... The murder of Russias biggest spammer Vardan Kushnir was not connected with his Internet activity, but with a straightforward robbery, Moscow investigators reported.So, perhaps his murderer didn't kill him because of spam only.  well i think murder is really bad....even if he was a spammer...everyone gets spam we all hate spam but spam is not the reason for killing anyone. 166258[/snapback] I agree, couldn't have put it better Murder's a serious offence, and while I think spamming shouldn't be legal (especially mails that have crappy adult content), I certainly would condemn the idea of murdering someone who spams. I'm sure there are more rational ways of punishing spammers; I'm putting these thoughts down in the context of if-the-report-above-isn't-true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zaccid 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 Well I must admit that since he if the biggest Spammer then he does deserve it. I totally hate Spammers. They are a complete and utter nusiace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steven 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 I think that he deserved this because he spammed every one. Take that russian spammer guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danieluchis 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2005 haha, well i don't think he deserved to die, just because he was a spammer (well actually yes, but hey this is my ethic speaking lol) anyways perhaps this guy was also involved in some serious things, like drugs or some other things, cuz i just can't believe he was just an internet geek/freak maybe they pay him for sending spam, that's the only reason i can think for someone sending millions of spam mail.. not even boredom could end this way o_oU.. anyways that's just me speaking...

TimothyA 0 Report post Posted July 28, 2005 One, millions of spam messages is NOT a lot if you compare it to the world population. Second, he might have been killed by the maffia in russia (Conspiracy theories may begin now.). Third, it was on slashdot a long time ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sick of receiving stupid emails about how to get my sexual life better..The good thing is that thunderbird manages to delete all the spam messages.. so usually it's just a number i need to face every day.Though dead is not the right way to deal with this type of spammers.. some surely deserve it..
