- ihsw 14y agoIP addresses aren't reliable, especially when considering spammers will know IP address geolocation will be used. It may be safe to assume a vast majority of US IP addresses will actually be proxies.
- simias 14y agoThose were the top domains used by spammers: 16514 gmail.com 7300 hotmail.com 3267 yahoo.com How come gmail is so popular with spammers?
- extesy 14y agoWhen accusing domain owners of spam, don't forget that anyone can spam thousands of blog comments for $5 using any domain (think negative seo). For example, I really doubt that Steve Pavlina (#3 in the spam domains list) would spam his own domain. Most probably some competitor wants to take his domain out of the google index.
