Political Spamming In India
from the all-the-rage dept
While we've complained about political spam campaigns here in the US, it seems to have been taken to another level in India, where campaigns are spamming both email and text messaging accounts with wild abandon. In fact, the campaigns have done deals with wireless carriers to send messages to all of their subscribers. This seems politically stupid. If you're on the fence about a candidate, will having them bug you with a "vote for me!" spam message make you any more inclined to vote for them - or will it make you question what they think of protecting your inbox.

Outsourced Spam
Ahha , the irony.
Outsourced Spam ... lol
India not only gets our jobs but our problematic spam as well.
Perhaps some of the unemployed American here can come up with a way to stop all this spam for these poor people.
For a list of American companies outsourcing your job:
