Then according to you, how is spam different from a DDOS attack were
thousands of computers start spewing packets? If both problems are similar,
Um, when have you ever seen a DDOS attack with thousands of computers
are spewing packets? Do you have an example?
Also, what service is being denied?
then perhaps we need to look into what methods are currently in place to
block DDOS attacks and we can reuse the same methods here for spam.
Except it's not a DDOS attack, except as a broad-sweeping (and useful)
metaphor.
