30 years of SPAM : Enough !!!

120 Billions of SPAM sent every day ! Oh my God. 90% of all emails.
It was the third day of May 1978, a employee sent 400 messages via Arpanet. Gary Thuerk, working for DEC ( a computer maker ), an advertisement for the new System-20 minicomputers. Many of the receiver complains, and it was the beginning of long way complaining about SPAM.
Obviously we’re all affected by SPAM, but we really don’t know how to eradicate it. Some friends told me the only way to avoid SPAM is to do not have an email account :).
I hate to say that we are celebrating the SPAM birthday, but it is just for me a way of helping awarness about this malicious cancer.
